Yankees vs Red Sox Prediction
The Yankees are getting the benefit of the doubt at home with Rodon on the mound, and I get it. However, we’ve cashed on the Red Sox in three straight games, and I’m going to get greedy and go for a fourth straight win. May has been a different pitcher since coming over from the Dodgers, allowing 19 hits and five runs in 15.2 innings while striking out 19. The Yankees bats have been cold all series. The value is with the Red Sox and the plus money with how this series has played out. Give me the Sox for the sweep.
