New York at Toronto

The NY Yankees are fourth in baseball in runs scored, and tops in on-base percentage. New York is 13-6 against the AL East, plus 35-17 versus a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. New York righty Michael Pineda (6-2, 3.32 ERA) has been sharp and the team is 12-5 when facing a left-handed starter. Meanwhile Toronto is 7-18 against a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. The Blue Jays have a struggling southpaw going in 33-year-old Francisco Liriano (6.35 ERA), who is back from the DL (left shoulder inflammation), making his first start since May 10. New York won 12-2 yesterday as a dog to Toronto and holds all the edges in offense, starting pitching and relief pitching. Play the Yankees.
