The Yankees are 7-20 in the last twenty seven games played in Baltimore. Last October, the Orioles swept the series in Baltimore.
On Tuesday, Luis Severino (0-3, 6.86 ERA) faced the Orioles in his final start of the 2015 season, holding them to three runs in a career-high seven innings. He was beat up for six runs on seven hits in just three frames at Texas last Tuesday.
Rotogrinders writes: “Add the Orioles prowess against RHP and at home to Luis Severino's 17.5 HR/FB since his call up and he could continue to have problems tonight after pitching poorly through his first four starts.”
Chris Tillman (2-1, 3.24) was also roughed up his last outing. Tillman owns a 4.96 ERA in 16 career starts versus New York.
We would be reluctant to stick to the solid trend favoring Baltimore in this particular matchup.
Neither the Wednesday or Thursday matchups appeal to us when relying on strong trending.
In particular, Thursday, Masahiro Tanaka has enjoyed success against Baltimore bats, allowing just 14 hits on 66 at bats. Five of those were home runs.
As noted by ESPN, the 27-year-old continues to display strong command and has looked impressive through his first five starts, but he holds just a 1-0 record due to a lack of run support.
The Yankees will face Mike Wright, who has limited experience against them.
