AAA's Afternoon ASSASSIN (ONLY $25!)
(MLB) NY Yankees vs. Texas,
Money Line: -157.00 NY Yankees (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* ASSASSIN on the New York Yankees (1:05 EST).

Sometimes a favorite is a favorite for a reason and in this case, we absolutely believe that Luis Severino and the hard-hitting visiting side could/should easily be much larger ones in this particular matchup.

Severino: He's 12-6 with a 3.03 ERA. Severino gave up one run off two hits and zero walks while striking out nine over six innings in a victory over the Red Sox on Sunday. Severino now sits in the Top 10 for WHIP (1.07), FIP (3.12), K-BB% (22.5) and strikeout rate (29%). Note that he's been at his best on the road as well this year by going 6-1 with a tiny 2.32 ERA.

Andrew Cashner: He's 9-9 with a 3.29 ERA. Cashner gave up two runs off six hits over six innings in a victory over the soft-hitting Braves on Monday. Granted Cashner has looked pretty good of late, but we simply feel that he's up against the wrong opponent at the wrong time.

The bottom line: We're giving Serverino the slight nod on the bump in this matchup and that's going to be more than enough to tip the scales in favor of the playoff hopefull YANKEES.
