The New York Yankees after getting
off to a bad start at home have had a good road trip. They took the first game in Baltimore before
losing the next two but then have won the last three in Tampa. They will now head to Detroit for the next
four games. Detroit has been a hard
place for the Yankees to win and they are off to a great start. It should be a very tough series for
them.
The Yankees will send CC Sabathia
to the mound on Monday night against Alfred Simon. Simon is off to a good start at 2-0 with a
2.03 ERA. Sabathia will be in search of
his first win as he is 0-2 with a 5.68 ERA.
The Yankees keep saying he is pitching better than the results but
eventually he has to get on the win column and showing a little more. Tuesday night Nathan Eovaldi will pitch
against Kyle Lobstein. Lobstein is 1-0
with a 5.40 ERA and Eovaldi is 0-0 with a 4.35 ERA. Wednesday night it will be Adam Warren
against David Price. Price has pitched
great so far and Warren has struggled.
Thursday afternoon the series will wrap with Masahiro Tanaka starting
against TBA.
If the Yankees can take one they
had an ok trip, if they take two good and anymore then that would be a great
road trip. The Yankees bats have come
alive, they hit a lot of homeruns and have the ability to come back in
games. The bullpen has been their
strength with Miller closing out games and Dellin Betances has gotten back to
where he was last year. He is pitching
well now in the seventh and eighth innings.
The starters have been ok and they can also get better.
The Tigers have been great this
season and have been doing everything right.
They have good pitching and a good offense, their bullpen can still be a
problem for them and they aren't great defensively although I would say they
are better than they have been. It
should be a good series and I think they will split the four games.
