Blue Jays vs Yankees Prediction
The Blue Jays have done enough to be worth a look in spots like this, but I just can’t get there with this pitching matchup. Gausman is coming off a June where he allowed 25 hits and 17 runs in 28 innings, and he’s not good at home, where he has a 4.54 ERA and .248 allowed batting average. Fried is a CY Young candidate with a 1.92 ERA and 0.94 WHIP, and he’s allowed seven earned runs in his last 33 innings. In 58.2 road innings, Fried has a 1.99 ERA. The Yankees have won 13 of the 17 games Fried has pitched this season. Give me the Yankees for a bounce-back win on Tuesday.
