New York had the day off yesterday. They are coming off a 4-2 homestand in which they allowed only 19 runs. Boston also had the day off on Thursday. They are 2-1 on their current homestand but 3-5 in their last 8 games overall.
The Red Sox have a 2-1 edge in the series in 2015 but the Yankees have a 6-4 lead in the past 10 meetings.
Sabathia has had a rough go of it this season and was hammered in his last start (7 runs allowed in 5 innings). He has only 1 Q start on the year. Masterson received a no decision in his last outing but it was a decent effort (7 innings, 3 runs allowed). Masterson has 2 Q starts this season and has had only one bad effort this year as the team is 3-1 in his starts.
No Yankee with double digit ABs against Masterson has a BA above .250. 1B Mark Teixeira and OF Carlos Beltran are the only regulars to hit a homer off of the right-hander.
The Red Sox have had trouble with Sabathia as well. No one is hitting above .273 but DH David Ortiz and 1B Mike Napoli have both touched the left-hander with 2 HRs each.

Is Masterson still pitching in the Majors? He has pitched better than 2014 so far this season, but we expect the wheels to fall off any start now. Sabathia was decent until getting blown up by the Mets and can rebound here.
