Yankees need strong encore from Cam Schlittler to extend ALDS again
Rookie Cam Schlittler, with a 0.00 postseason ERA, will start Game 4 to help Yankees force a decisive Game 5 amid Blue Jays bullpen injuries and recent collapse.
- On Wednesday the Yankees need Cam Schlittler to win Game 4 at Yankee Stadium to force a win-or-go-home Game 5 in Toronto on Friday.
- Following offseason weight and work, Schlittler debuted in the Bronx on July 9, saying, `It comes down to the hard work I put in the offseason.`
- In last week's Wild Card Game Cam Schlittler threw eight scoreless innings with 12 strikeouts and zero walks, using 107 pitches and allowing two runs or fewer in 10 of his past 12 outings.
- Bettors pushed the Yankees' moneyline from-158 to-175, with 78% of the handle backing them and a 60.9% implied win, fueled by Aaron Judge's.636 series average and Toronto Blue Jays bullpen injuries.
- Still, the matchup is tricky because Toronto has had success against Schlittler this year, who has just five strikeouts in 37 batters faced, and left Bo Bichette off the ALDS roster while naming Louis Varland as starter.
