Reds vs Yankees Prediction

I’m on the Yankees here. I get the case to be made for the Reds after looking strong in the opener, and Chase Burns is one of the most highly-touted prospects in baseball who’s expected to make the jump full-time this season. That being said, this is a tough matchup for your major league debut if you’re Burns, and the one thing people said about Burns’ fastball, while it hits triple digits, is that it’s hittable as well. The Yankees, at times, have been hit or miss, but I just think that they’re the better team here and get a favorable pitching matchup. Give me New York in this one.
