MLB - Detroit Tigers at New York Yankees ESPN 6pm

Another two capable pitchers who've been slow out of the blocks this season. CC Sabathia is carrying a 1.24/5.27 WHIP/ERA and Max Scherzer an even worse 1.83/8.24 going into this game.

That said, Scherzer has a 4-0 record against the Yankees with an ERA of 2.16 and Sabathia counters with a 2-0/1.80 ERA record at Yankee Stadium against the Tigers. That might suggest an Unders bet, but with the wind out to centre, even with such a high line, I'm not viewing the 1.84 as too good to resist.

Detroit's bullpen has been awful and Sherzer hasn't been going deep into games, so I'm going to rely on CC's home record and the Yankees' hotter bats to lay the runline.

Pick: New York Yankees -1.5 @ 21/20; 2.05; 105
