Frankie Montas has struggled since joining the New York Yankees. He has allowed six runs twice and boasts a 9.00 ERA in three starts over 14 innings for the Bronx Bombers. Montas will face off with Taijuan Walker and the Yankees' crosstown rival, New York Mets.

Walker has struggled with giving up hard contact over the past few seasons. However, he has been a staple in the Mets' rotation this year. Walker has pitched well most of the season, but a bulging disk in his back may prevent him from a lengthy outing on Tuesday.

Walker is listed as the starter, but proceed with caution. That said, Montas is nothing to write home about in New York. This game may very well come down to a battle of the bullpens. The Yankees’ bullpen has been abysmal in August, which some may blame for their poor performance since the deadline. The Mets’ relievers have been about league average, which could provide an edge, especially if Walker can string some innings together.

Take the Mets at -110. Even if a spot starter has to fill Walker's slot in the rotation, Montas and the Yankee bullpen are fade-worthy.
