The Orioles are out-playing the New York Yankees right now, yet they are getting no respect playing at home here as a mid-sized dog. Wei Yin Chen has also out-pitched C.C. Sabathia, but doesn't have the name to compensate for an over-inflated line. The Orioles’ bullpen features six pitchers with ERAs of under 2, and are tops in all of baseball. The Yankees’ perceived advantage here comes from their booming bats, which have launched 55 HRs already, but guess what? Baltimore is better and leads the majors with 57. The Yanks are just 2-8 in their last 10 with a total set of 7 to 8.5, and the O's bats are not being silenced by top pitchers with a WHIP of 1.15 or less, as they are 14-3 in their last 17 against them. Play on Baltimore.
