Sonny Gray is a top pitcher who is not in top form. Gray has given up eight earned runs in his last two starts spanning 12 innings. Then he caught food poisoning and hasn't pitched since June 25. He may only go six innings at most due to lack of stamina, putting Oakland's vulnerable bullpen into heavy play.







Yankee starter Nathan Eovaldi doesn't go deep into games either. The Yankees' bullpen isn't as good as it was minus Andrew Miller. The A's lineup supports good career numbers against Eovaldi, who isn't as good as his 8-2 record may indicate with a 4.52 ERA.




It's a hitter's night, too, with temperatures in the low 80's and the wind blowing out.
