Battle Of The Bullpens Yankees VS Royals

You know something has to be crazy if I'm not featuring BIG Mike Pineda on a night he starts but tonight's match up is all about the bullpens. The Kansas City Royals are the one team that may have a better bullpen than the Yankees. So this entire game could boil down to who has the lead when the starters leave the game. If Pineda can go seven strong and the Yankees bats actually give some run support before the Royals go to the bullpen this should be a Yankees kind of game.

New York Yankees:

Michael Pineda (5-0 , 2.72 ERA)
