Toronto Blue Jays vs New York Yankees Best Bets and Predictions
This startsna huge AL East divisional series between the Blue Jays and the Yankees. Kevin Gausman faces off against Cam Schlittler. Both starting pitchers have been solid recently, but these offenses will be hard to keep down especially in Yankee Stadium. The Yankees average 7.5 runs per game over their last 10 and the Jays are at 6.7. Both offenses can put up long balls and I think that will be the reason we see an OVER in Jays/Yankees on Friday night.
TRENDS
- The total has gone OVER in 10 of Toronto's last 11 games.
- The total has gone OVER in 5 of Toronto's last 5 games on the road.
- The total has gone OVER in 14 of NY Yankees' last 18 games.
- The total has gone OVER in 14 of NY Yankees' last 19 games against Toronto.
- The total has gone OVER in 4 of NY Yankees' last 5 games at home.
Best Bet: Blue Jays/Yankees OVER 8.5 runs for 1 unit (BetMGM -120)

Cleveland Guardians vs Tampa Bay Rays Best Bets and Predictions
I went with the Rays on Thursday night and they won 4-2. The streak continues Friday night with Ian Seymour going against Gavin Williams, The Guardians have really faded recently going 7-13 in their last 20 (5-5 last 10) and their road record is 2-9 in thelr last 11. The Rays are 10-2 in their last 12 including 6 in a row at home. They are hitting .348 as a team in that stretch.
Seymour is the Rays best pitching prospect and has looked great so far. I will continue to ride the hot team and fade the cold one.
Best Bet: Rays -1.5 runs for 1 unit (Caesars +165)
