Why are the yankees favored by -150?

The same matchup in Tampa it was -105, are the yankees really that much better than the rays?

I am sure they are taking into account home field advantage, and stats for each pitcher. For example, Shields has given up ALOT of home runs and Yankee stadium seems to be a park that allows alot.

However, with that said, I am still going to have a play with the Rays tonight.
