Seattle Mariners Fantasy Spin
Dee Gordon went 3-for-4 and homered against the Yankees on Monday. Gordon has alternated hitting first against righties and ninth against lefties since the Mariners demoted Mallex Smith. So, he was in the ninth spot tonight against CC Sabathia, but he ended up taking Sabathia deep for just his third homer ever off a left-handed pitch. He has three homers total this year, leaving him just one shy of his career high.
New York Yankees Fantasy Spin
Brett Gardner homered and tripled as the Yankees topped the Mariners 7-3 on Monday. It's the seventh time in his career that Gardner has homered and tripled in a game. He's batting just .223 this year, but since he's also struck out just 15 times in 139 plate appearances, one would think that average would come up some.
MLB Betting Trends
Seattle
The Mariners are 6-2 in Marco Gonzales’ last eight starts.
New York
The Yankees are just 1-5 in Masahiro Tanaka’s last six outings.
Prediction:
The Yankees are 7-1 in Tanaka’s last eight starts versus the Mariners, who are now 0-6 in their last six games in the Bronx. The Mariners have also dropped 22 of their last 29 games versus the Yankees overall. With Seattle struggling and New York still slugging despite having an All-Star team on the IL, I’ll lay the Yankees’ money line price as they attempt to win Game 2 on Tuesday.
The Pick: New York Yankees -149
