Astros vs Yankees Prediction

I don’t know how anybody backs the Astros with confidence with the way this pitching staff has looked all season. It’s a bad arm on a loop. Burrows falls into that boat with his 6.75 ERA And 1.69 WHIP through 26.2 innings. It’s not ideal when going up against a red-hot Yankees team that’s found their bats this week. There’s only one way to go into this spot. Give me the Yankees and the RL for max betting value.
