The New York Yankees look to take advantage of the worst team in baseball tonight when they begin a three-game home set against the Washington Nationals.

The Yankees, who MLB odds have listed as -360 favorites, will be looking to avoid a letdown when they take on the Nationals, who are on pace for 119 losses this season. There are also rumors that manager Manny Acta's job may be in jeopardy.

The Yankees hit seven home runs over the weekend to bring their major league-leading total to 102, which includes 64 at the new Yankee Stadium.

New York will start CC Sabathia after he suffered a tough 4-3 loss to Boston on Thursday.

The lefthander is 12-6 with a 3.73 ERA in 31 interleague starts, going 3-0 with a 2.68 ERA in his last five.

Washington rookie Shairon Martis will be looking for his first win since May 13 after a 5-0 start to his season.
