00:00Courtesy of the Hunter Dobbins saga, who starts tomorrow for the Sox against the Yankees inside Fenway.

00:08Maybe we've got some juice here between Boston and New York.

00:11It starts on this Friday night.

00:13Garrett Crochet on the bump for the Red Sox.

00:16And they're a home Moneyline favorite.

00:18Won't often see the Yanks as an underdog DRS.

00:21How does this rivalry renew once again?

00:24Yeah, hopefully we get runs, but I don't know if we will.

00:26But also, will the dad, will they cut away and show the dad in the stands like he's got the half Boston jersey, half Yankees jersey?

00:31Yeah, exactly, because he was drafted by the Yankees, theoretically, and my son plays for the Red Sox.

00:36It's really hard to have differentiating.

00:38But the one thing we are going to look at is XFIT minus numbers here.

00:40And these two pitchers heading into this game, Ben, very good.

00:42Garrett Crochet, number two on the card, XFIT minus of a 54.

00:46How about an XFIT number of a 2.23?

00:48Look at Yarbrough.

00:49Not really one of those household names that you'd figure, like, he's a really good pitcher.

00:52But this year, particularly over the past 30 days, he has been a good pitcher.

00:56How about a 72 XFIT minus?

00:58The ERA is elevated at 4.71, but the XFIT number is 2.97, getting a little bit unlucky.

01:0368-degree temperatures, which aren't that bad.

01:06Foul pole from right to left foul pole of a win, so not really going to help all that much.

01:10The question, though, is, you know, are the Yankees going to bounce back?

01:12Like, yeah, they got a win yesterday, only one run.

01:14We're used to them smashing baseballs.

01:15It's a great hitter's ballpark that we get.

01:17And two lineups that present themselves very well against these pitchers.

01:21In this one, I'm leaning towards the pitchers.

01:23I really don't want to go under 8.5, but if I have two pitchers in the top six of my card today

01:28with XFIT minus and XFIT numbers, I'm going to trust those levels that we say under 8.5.

01:33It's one of those that set it, bet it, forget it.

01:36Because I don't know if you want to watch those murderous row guys coming up time and time again in Boston tonight,

01:40but it just feels like an under game for me based on the pitching statistics.

01:43I'm going to go to宣 bro.

01:44I'm going to go stablating.

01:45All right.

01:45I'm starting앙s now.

01:57Let's do it.

01:58We'll do it so.
