Cam Schlittler's start last night wasn't his first against the Red Sox...
He pitched against them in a Spring Training scrimage back in 2020 while he was in college 🤯
Yankees-Blue Jays series thoughts:
- Toronto is a very right handed pitching staff (Gausman, Bieber, Bassitt, etc.) the Yankees offense matchups up well vs them.
- Yankee bullpen will be key in this series. Toronto leads MLB in pitches seen per plate appearance which will limit how long the starters can go.
- Toronto’s closer Jeff Hoffman had a 4.37 ERA this season. Feels like a series where the Yankees may have to steal a game vs him late.
- Toronto will struggle to win at Yankee stadium. If the Yankees can take 1 of the first 2 in Canada, they should be in good shape.
Let’s go Yankees.
These two are a major reason the Yankees are moving onto the ALDS.
The organization’s scouting and player development deserve their flowers… TWO GEMS 💎
If this is how the Yankees-Blue Jays pitching lines up, the Yanks have the pitching advantage in every game except Game 1 as far as I’m concerned
Game 1: Gil vs. Gausman
Game 2: Fried vs. Bieber
Game 3: Rodon vs. Yesavage
Game 4: Schlittler vs. Bassitt
Game 5: Fried vs. Gausman
