Rangers vs Yankees Prediction
I’m on the Rangers in this one. I just like Nathan Eovaldi’s current form right now, and I think the Yankees are in some trouble with Will Warren getting the nod here. Warren’s struggled on the road as of late, and I think that the Rangers get another win and add to the Yankees’ slide here. Give me Texas.
