The Yankees

This weekend we face the evil empire known as the New York Yankees. Fortunately, we come in having won 6 of our last 7 games. Unfortunately, they come in having won 9 in a row. Fortunately, their stadium sucks and any ball hit in the air to right field is a home run. Unfortunately, our pitchers give up plenty of those as it is.
Overall I like our chances. These games will more than likely turn into slugfests despite the good pitching matchups. Our lineup full of lefties should dominate tonight against the right-handed AJ Burnett. Utley, Ibanez, Howard, and Stairs should go crazy in this ballpark. Although Myers will more than likely struggle, I think we can outhit them in tonight's game.
Tomorrow will be a bit tougher facing the left-handed Andy Pettitte who I think is more of a finesse pitcher. And JA Happ will be making his first start of the season. It's a tough situation for Happ to come into, but it's not as if this is his first action of the season or even first career start. I think he should be fine, but that game will definitely be tougher.
Sunday's game is Hamels against Sabathia which should be a great matchup. I am not afraid of Sabathia (NLDS) and Hamels is pitching really well right now. Sabathia throws hard, but that just means if we can get a good bat on the ball it'll fly forever.
I like that we have lefties going against lefties. I feel like no team really has a big pitching advantage in this series, so it will be all about who can hit better. Hopefully yesterday was just a warm up and we can keep it going through the weekend. I think this will be a very fun series to watch.
