ERA: 2.70
WHIP: 1.10
In 20 innings. Only Pettitte has the 14 necessary to qualify with a lower ERA, and he's not even facing Mats.
My question is, do you have that much faith in Jeff Karstens or Chase Wright?
I can see Friday as a realistic Yankee win prediction. The Yankees usually do well v. Schilling and Pettitte's tough, but Beckett and Mats have been on first and they are facing two guys with limited MLB experience. It's hard for me to imagine a good justification for picking the Yankees in either game. I'm not telling you who to predict, it's just hard to imagine the Yankees as the favorite in either.
