T.M. Selection: New York Yankees.

I like the New York Yankees to win this game against the St Louis Cardinals on Saturday. The Yankees haven't looked good in their games lately, losing 3 games in a row now, but I expect them to bounce back in this game and I think this is a great spot for them. They just lost to the Cardinals last night by blowing a late lead in the 8th inning but I see the Yankees offense putting up some runs in this game. They still racked up a ton of hits in that game they lost but I expect them to convert those into runs here. Jordan Montgomery (3-3, 3.69 ERA) is up for the Cardinals here and this will be a very emotional start for him pitching against the team he was on less than a week ago. He didn't look very good near the end of his time with the Yankees though and I don't think he has fixed any of those issues for this game. He has given up 4+ runs in 2 starts in a row now and was becoming a problem in the rotation for the Yankees. He is gone now and their rotation is better off, but now that he is starting in this game I expect the Yankees to put up a ton of runs on him here. Domingo German (1-1, 6.39 ERA) is up for the Yankees here and he has only made 3 starts this year since he has been out a majority of the year with an injury. He didn't look good in his 1st start back from injury, giving up 5 runs in 3 innings of that game, but he has only given up 2 runs in both of his 2 most recent starts and has pitched more innings in each one. I think he is starting to round into that great form he was in before leaving with injury a year ago and I expect him to shut down the Cardinals in this game. The Yankees have been in terrible shape lately but they need to start winning games and I think this game offers them a great bounce back spot. I like the Yankees to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 7-3 Yankees.
