New York Yankees vs. Athletics Prediction

I’m on the Yankees here. I get the case to be made for a home underdog in spots and there’s going to be plenty of times this season where we benefit from backing the Athletics. However, this lefty/lefty matchup doesn’t favor the A’s here, as Carlos Rodon has been stellar as of late and stellar in his career against the Athletics while JP Sears has had major issues in facing his former team. I think the Yankees keep it going here and nab themselves another win so give me the Yankees in this one.
