The World Series 2009 Yankees vs. Phillies Odds have New York at -200 MLB Betting Odds at SBGGlobal.com.

Pitching: The Phillies will send 38-year old right-hander Pedro Martinez (5-1, 3.63) against Yankees southpaw Andy Pettitte (14-8, 4.18) who will be working on only three days rest.  Martinez has pitched outstanding this postseason but his New York nemesis has had success against him in the postseason with a 1-2 record with a 4.71 ERA in 6 starts. Once a pure power-pitcher, Martinez is now a cerebral pitcher with pinpoint control. Martinez is an intense competitor that still relies on a sharp curveball with lots of bend and a circle-changeup that he uses masterfully. Martinez’s fastball that once was around 97 MPH now tops out at about 90 MPH but he can paint the corners with it.

Andy Pettitte is a workhorse that throws an 88-91 fastball with nice cutting action. Pettite also has a tricky slider and big curveball that he works both sides of the plate with. Pettitte has been sharp in the postseason starts hitting his spots and keeping hitters off balance. Pettite however has had trouble getting out lefthanders this season and the Phillies are loaded with left-handed bats that will get a few good swings on him. Both bullpens have been shaky but the Yankees having closer Mariano Rivera will always give them the edge. The World Series 2009 Yankees vs. Phillies Odds Total is at 9.5 RUNS on the MLB Betting Odds.

Lineups: Both of these teams have stacked lineups from top-to-bottom but the Yanks are hitting the ball a tad better right now. The Yankees have two players  that are playing outstanding baseball right now in Johnny Damon and Derek Jeter. The Phillies have been powered by the hot bat of second baseman Chase Utley who has been the hottest hitter in the series. Philadelphia is usually powered by big first baseman Ryan Howard but he has been struggling in the series. The Phillies have slightly better speed and defense but New York has more talent and hold an advantage in about 7 of the 9 lineup slots. Advantage New York.

World Series Picks Summary: The Phillies are desperate and have a fresh Pedro on the mound but tonight will be the Yankees night. In front of their home crowd with their bevy of clutch performers NY will be able to polish of Philadelphia for their first World Series since 200.
