This is a rematch of a pitching duel on June 16th at Shea, which Appier lost 2-1. Appier would be a good play here if his damn team can score some runs for him. Tall order against Mussina. Perhaps a hedge play here with NYY - 180 & NYM +1 1/2 on run line?
Regarding the total, if their last matchup was only a week ago, I would probably look for reasons for this game to go over. Since the game was 3 weeks ago, NY may be in store for another pitching duel. Pending whether reports, I am leaning to a play on the under 7 1/2 O. Sunday's ESPN game matches Reed v. Kiesler, which would seem to have the definate makings of an over play.
Thoughts anyone? Be back in morning.
