Red Sox vs Yankees Prediction
Boston comes into this matchup playing very well, and they have found some nice success against the Yankees over the last week. The Red Sox are 20-17 at home this year, while the Yankees are 21-14 on the road. New York has scored one run in each of their last two games, and they will face Dobbins, who has allowed three and four earned runs in his last two starts. New York is starting Rodon, who has allowed one earned run or fewer in four of his last five starts, but did allow five earned runs to Boston last weekend. I think we will see much more scoring in this game than we did on Friday, and I like the over here.
