Reds have many out. Reds on a bad day of week. Ump a little chalky. Yanks 5-2 last 7 at home. MCCarthy 3.14 ERA with him. Simon the better pitcher and on short sample fine on this rest. Teams roughly equal in day games especially with Nuno gone. Hard to evaluate this spot but spread seems too high.
Detroit is 11-4 today and they are playing off 3 losses. I am looking at this Detroit pitcher. His first 4 games were fine and included a win at Detroit. Then-----6 losses and a win at home vs Detroit where he gave up 5 runs in 2 innings. In the 2 road games since then 6 run losses. Any insights why I should not lay 2.5.
In fairness his last game was very reasonable at home.
