Love the Sox today CC has gone 0-4 vs. them and has not been pitching that great of late. He's given up 20 ER in 20 innings pitched vs. Boston this year and has a 4.43 ERA over his last 3 starts. Boston has .309 and 6.83 runs per 9 average at home vs. LHP while the Yankees on the road although have hit righties hard not nearly as hard as they've hit lefties. They have a .246 average and 4.58 runs per 9 and are banged up a bit here. Jeter will likely start but Arod is out and I think John Lackey has gotten into a little rhythm here with a 4.00 ERA over his last 6 home starts he had a QS last time out vs. the Yankees. Yankees have 434 AB vs. Lackey and a .267 average .788 OPS. Red Sox core of Ellsbury, Gonzalez, Crawford, and Pedroia are a combined 19-44 for a .432 average vs. CC in their career.


Cubbies face the Giants who struggle to score at home and they have never seen Matt Garza so that's likely not to change. I think the Cubs bullpen has been good and hte Giants bullpen is going to start to get stretched a bit. Vogelsong has been great that's why he's a favorite here today, but I still don't think he is as good as advertised. Vogelsong has been hit hard by the Cubs 61 at bats a .311 average and .881 OPS. Aramis Ramirez is 6-15 with 2 HR off Vogelson and has a .398 average in August as he continues to be red hot. Cubs are scoring 1.10 more runs per 9 on the road than the Giants are at home and their bullpen is solid at 3.54 on the road this year.
