Wagering Major League Baseball with Yankees & the Mets
Betting MLB is generally enjoyable on Sunday night given that ESPN has the game. TV games usually get more attention from those who are betting MLB and this matchup on Sunday night is definitely a good one. Sabathia is 4-2 with a 3.43 ERA this season while Santana is 3-2 with a 3.72 ERA. Both pitchers are considered the number one starters on their teams.
Sabathia signed with the New York Yankees towards the end of 2009. The seven-year, $161 million agreement is the biggest ever for a pitcher in Major League Baseball history. He began his career with the Cleveland Indians in 2001, and back then was the youngest player in baseball. In 2003 he threw the swiftest fastball in the American Leagues, clocking in at 93.9 mph on average.
Santana has earned the Cy Young Award 2 times, and is considered one of the best pitchers in baseball. Santana was traded from the Twins to the New York Mets during the 2007-2008 off season, signing a 6-year, $137.5 million contract. He is well known for his circle changeup pitch, though he has a outstanding fastball at 90-95 MPH.
Sabathia hasn’t gotten a decision since May 3rd. The bullpen blew his last outing after he had pitched seven innings of one-run ball against Boston. Those betting MLB ought to know that he is 2- with a 1.20 ERA in two career starts versus the Mets. Santana has also been getting no decisions lately. He pitched well vs Atlanta last time out but didn’t get the victory. Last year he permitted nine runs in 3 innings last year against the Yankees. He is 4-2 with a 4.40 ERA in 11 career games versus the Yankees. The Yankees had won seven of the last ten against the Mets before this series began including five six last year.
The Yankees have been winning with an offense that is 1st in the league in runs scored. Their pitching is not too bad either as they are in the Top 10 in ERA. The Yankees have been better at home but they additionally have success on the road. The Mets are far better at home than on the road. In fact, those wagering Major League Baseball recognize that the Mets have been almost precisely the opposite home versus away. They have been exceptional at Citi Field while they have won infrequently on the road. That is not the mark of a winning team. A good home record is fine but to make the playoffs a team usually must be around .500 on the road. The Mets are nowhere close to that mark.
The Mets are generally nice in the pitching department with an ERA that rates in the Top 10 but their offense has really struggled. That has meant betting on the Mets when betting MLB has been a risky proposition.
