Yankees Should Look For Off-Speed Pitches Tonight

Although it was in an article saying that his off-speed pitches had improved, this stat is pretty crazy from ESPN’s Inside Edge:

[Derek Holland] has already faced New York twice this season in Texas losses. Yankees hitters teed off on his non-fastballs for a .714 batting average.

The Yankees are a veteran team and should be able to take advantage of this tonight. Holland has won five of his seven starts since the All-Star break, but this is the type of guy who the Yankees should jump all over.
