Red Sox vs. Yankees MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Last night’s statement against Gerrit Cole solidified Boston as the better team. They have the Yankees number and it is clear nothing from defense, recent schedule, run production, or betting trends indicate New York should win tonight. Until a reason to bet on the Yankees comes up these struggles need to be capitalized on.
