MLB Odds: Yankees vs Tigers MLB Picks – May 10th, 2010: The New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers begin a four game set in the Motor City with a nationally televised battle on ESPN this evening. The game is scheduled to get underway at 7:05pm ET at Comerica Park. MLB Odds at online bookmaker SBGglobal.com have the Yankees listed as a -122 moneyline favorite; the game total is set at 10 with the Over drawing -120 odds.
New York got a series win against the Red Sox over the weekend, but they did not escape Boston unscathed after losing to
their arch rival 9-3 last night. The loss snapped a six game winning streak for the Yankees and left them a half-game behind the first place Rays in the American League East at 21-9.
New York comes into tonight's game averaging 5.9 runs per game, but it has been especially rough on left handed pitching. Tigers starter Dontrelle Willis can look forward to a lineup that leads the league in hits, home runs, batting average, runs, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage against left-handed pitching when he takes the hill tonight.
Willis has been respectable this year after a disastrous first two seasons in Detroit as he currently has a 3.99 ERA and 1-1 record in five 2010 starts.
New York's Sergio Mitre will make a spot start this evening after working the entire early portion of the year out of the bullpen. Mitre sports a 2.79 ERA in 9.2 innings pitched this season. He will be facing a Detroit team that has lost four of its last five contests and produced an average of 4.2 runs per game in that span.
MLB Odds Betting Trend: New York is 7-3 straight up in its last 10 games playing as a road favorite versus a left handed pitcher with a total between 9.5 and 10.
