Tampa Bay Rays vs New York Yankees Prediction

I’ll stay with the Rays I suppose. Littell has one bad start in his last three outings, giving up seven earned in 4.0 innings. In the other pair however, Littell is 1-0 with one earned in 11.0 innings. As for Rodon, he’s 0-2 in his last trio with nine earned in 13.1 innings of work.

On Sunday the Rays were up 5-0 at one point and didn’t have too many issues until the seventh inning. I like Tampa Bay to keep it rolling and take the series here.
