2015 Season MLB Baseball Past Picks

A tough situational spot for Seattle, 3,000 miles from home. They have ace Felix Hernandez going, but the team is 1-3 his last four starts and 3-5 the last eight. Hernandez has a 3.26 ERA in 18 career starts against the Yankees, who touched him for seven runs in 4 2/3 innings in a loss on June 1 in Seattle. Opponents hit .190 off him at home, but .249 away. The Mariners are 6-17 as a favorite. Seattle is terrible on offense, 27th in baseball in runs scored, while the Yankees rank second, and they are on a 17-7 run at home. Yankees LF Brett Gardner is 11-for-32 during an eight-game hitting streak and is 10-for-29 versus Hernandez. The Yankees will counter with C.C. Sabathia, who is 12-5 with a 2.65 ERA in 23 starts against Seattle. Seattle is 1-7 against New York, so grab the home dog. Play the New York Yankees.
