Last night the AL East leading New York Yankees fell to one of the worst teams ever in baseball history, the 9-42 Colorado Rockies, 3-2, but that won’t happen today when they resume their 3-game set at Coors Field. New York is expected to have their ace southpaw, Max Fried, on the hill and he has Cy Young numbers. Fried is 6-0 with an ERA of only 1.29 and a 0.94 WHIP. If numbers like that aren’t intimidating to a hitter, then what is? The Yankees lead the league in home runs; they are averaging over 5 runs per game and should light up the Rockies expected starter, Kyle Freeland. He is 0-6 with a 5.68 ERA, a 1.59 WHIP, and the Yankees are 4-0 in their last 4 following a loss. The Bombers won’t come cheap but should cruise to a victory.
