Yankees always seem to struggle vs. pitchers they have not seen before. Furbush has been solid in his home starts this year as most pitchers are in Seattle and he goes up against Aj Burnett who should no longer be a favorite. If you faded him in every start this year you would have made a lot of money. Burnett had a rough time his last start vs. SEA was on the road 5 IP 4 hits 5 walks and escaped with just 2 ER luckily. His previous start he gave up 12 hits 6 ER. The Mariners have 78 AB .333 average and .832 OPS vs. Burnett. Yankees last 5 have a .122 average vs. LHP and are 5-16 in Burnett's last 21 road starts with a total 9-10.5 and are 2-9 in his last 11 on 5 days rest. Furbush faced Boston at home earlier this year went 7 IP gave up 4 hits and 1 ER so he has the ability to give the Yankees fits.
