This is nuts. Look at the Yankees west coast trip. This is a serious opportunity to pick up a good bit of ground from them.
9 game trip. In 7 of their 9 games, the will face the following pitchers:
@SEA - Pineda (6-2, 2.19 ERA)
@SEA - Felix (5-1, 3.01 ERA)
@OAK - Cahill (6-2, 2.02 ERA)
@OAK - Anderson (2-4, 3.18 ERA)
@OAK - Gonzalez (5-2, 2.20 ERA)
@LAA - Weaver (6-4, 2.35 ERA)
@LAA - Haren (4-3, 2.24 ERA)
Damn.
Oh, and the 2 games where they don't face an absolute stud:
@SEA - Vargas (2-0, 1.91 ERA in May)
@LAA - Santana (1-1, 3.12 ERA in May)
They'll be lucky to take 4 of 9.
