The New York yankees lead the AL East, but are just 4-3 to start the season. They have a lot of aging players, with the oldest roster in baseball. Injuries are going to shape this team, and right now they have already lost two key pieces to the DL in Mark Teixiera, and closer David Robertson. The Bombers have just 1 home run through seven games, and are not swinging the bats right now. Baltimore has found success vs. Ivan Nova in his 12 appearances against them as his ERA is 4.46, and he has had issues with O's slugger Chris Davis who is 8-23 against him with 3 HRs. Baltimore has gotten good mileage out of Chen when facing a winning team at 7-2 in his last nine starts against them. A short lineup and no closer opens the door for the dog here, so play on Baltimore.
