Los Angeles Angels vs. New York Yankees Prediction
I’m on the Angels in this one. I am not Jack Kochanowicz’s biggest fan, but I’m not laying this kind of price with the Yankees just because. Sure, they had a strong opener but the bullpen didn’t do the Yankees any favors, and I’m still not sure what to make of Luis Gil so far this season. I think this is the time to strike with the Angels so give me Los Angeles and the plus money here.
