Quick Summary

Cam Schlittler of the Yankees will pitch against the Diamondbacks on Saturday, aiming to solidify his Cy Young case with an impressive season that includes a 1.95 ERA and 215 strikeouts in 28 starts (14-6 record). Over his last seven games, he has allowed only 21 hits over 45 innings for a 1.00 ERA. Despite facing the relatively strong Diamondbacks lineup, Schlittler’s opponents have struggled to hit him, with batters hitting just .185 against him this season and an even lower average recently. Dylan Svoboda, who writes about baseball betting, suggests placing a bet on Schlittler allowing fewer than 4.5 hits (-168 odds at DraftKings).
