Pick
Toronto comes into this game after sweeping the Braves and they are playing very good baseball right now. New York was able to manage a series split with the Rays and their offense has looked much better over the last week or so. The Yankees are starting Jhony Brito, who has allowed three earned runs or fewer in four of his last five starts, but he does not pitch very deep into games. The Blue Jays will turn to Alek Manoah, who has allowed three earned runs or fewer in four straight games. Toronto is red hot right now and they have the starting pitching advantage, so I am going to take them in this matchup.
