00:00The pinstripes booked as a slight road favorite. Minus 116

00:06with Carlos Rodon on the bump. The over under seven and a half.

00:10You Darvish was sensational in his last start. Minus 102 on

00:13the money line for the Padres. DRS full cross country trip for

00:19the Yanks who played albeit a day baseball game but a game

00:24yesterday. No off day in between. Will that have an

00:27effect on this outcome tonight in San Diego? I don't know if

00:31I have an effect overall just the way we put it there but if

00:34we just take a look at the lineups here. One lineup coming

00:36in absolutely red hot in the Yankees. The other lineup here

00:39for the San Diego Padres against left-handed pitching.

00:41Absolutely ice cold. So you're starting right there but let's

00:44take a look at the pitching matchups and where that makes

00:46sense. You Darvish as you pointed out sensational. You

00:48wanna take a look at the last 30 days? Fantastic. You wanna

00:51take a look at the full season? Fantastic but also right-handed

00:54pitching. The Yankees been have absolutely feasted on it.

00:57Look at the top six guys in this lineup which I love for

01:00the New York Yankees typically on a night-to-night basis. Volpe

01:03Soto, Judge Rodugo, Stanton, and Rizzo. ISO power numbers here.

01:07198, 325, Aaron Jojo, 417, 230, 243, and 225 respectively over

01:13the last 30 days. The Yankees are it but then again we just

01:16told you how good you Darvish has been. We're also not

01:18playing in the Bronx which means like oh look at this.

01:20Maybe 80 degree temperatures on the East Coast. Little

01:23humidity baked in. Maybe a wind blowing out in the true

01:25hitter's ballpark. You're playing out there at Petco and

01:27that is not a great ballpark to hit at and tonight's

01:30temperatures 63 degrees with a wind that is blowing in. If we

01:34flip it over to San Diego at the plate. They haven't hit

01:36left-handed pitching all that well. However, Carlos Hordan

01:39has struggled with right-handed batters over the past month.

01:42The problem is everybody in that lineup has been struggling

01:44against lefties here. The only bright spot, Jerks and Profiler

01:47at 273 ISO power number through 35 at bats against left-handed

01:51pitching. That's your RBI look but if you hear what I'm saying

01:54you see it tonight, it's probably an under game.
