The New York Yankees will begin a
brief two game series in Washington D.C. tonight. The Nationals are one of the hottest teams in
baseball playing up to their potential finally behind their star Bryce
Harper. The Nationals also have a very
good pitching staff. The Yankees have
been slumping with all the road games and 30 games in 31 days finally hitting
them. They finally got a day off on
Monday and I am sure they enjoyed it and will come out feeling refreshed and
ready to go. Here are the pitching
matchups
Nathan Eovaldi vs. Gio
Gonzalez. Eovaldi has been pretty good
this year, giving the Yankees some hope
for now and the future. Eovaldi is still
evolving as a pitcher as he is only 25 years old. Eovaldi is 3-1 with a 4.14 ERA and Gonzalez
is 3-2 with a 4.25 ERA.
On Wednesday night it will be Adam
Warren vs. Jordan Zimmerman. Warren is
2-2 with a 4.50 ERA and Zimmerman is 3-2 with a 3.66 ERA. Warren is coming off of his longest start of
his career. The Yankees will then head
home finally to take on the Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals before heading
west for the first time this season.
In this series with Washington
another thing to watch is the pitchers betting and Arod being the DH isn't
going to play unless he pinch hits. That
is a big bat to take out of a slumping Yankees lineup.
