[ghosty]

should i start ervin santana today against the yankees ? i am leaning towards not starting him. i play in a h2h category league so all pitching caegories count era/whip/k/bb/hr/ etc..

I have him and am wondering the same thing. Career ERA vs. Yanks in 8 starts is over 5 and he's always had bad home/away splits. So tempting though cause it's a 1:00 game, haha.

Historically against the current Yankee lineup:
Given up 41 hits in 162 at bats (.253 BA), 11 HRs, 29 RBIs, 21 BB, 36 K.

Note the amount of HRs to hits. Playing in NY is not going to help things there. He's prone to the long ball in general, having already given up two this season.

Sorry for the lateness, but I'm benching him today.
