The Red Sox saved Schilling for this matchup but I'm not sure he's the best pitcher on the mound today. He's 6-2 but his ERA is average at 4.17. Over his last three start's it's 7.13! Meanwhile the Yankees' Chien Ming Wang is 4-1 with a 3.79 ERA (2.05 over his last three starts). So we have a starter who is pitching better with a team that scored 5.7 runs per game in a rivalry game and we're getting +142. That's a bargain. Especially considering that the 5.7 is better than Boston's 5.4 and the Yankees have the bullpen advantage as well (3.56 ERA vs. 3.79). This is awesome line value for a game that could easily go either way. Take the Yanks.
