New York Yankees vs Boston Red Sox Prediction

The Red Sox are having a decent week, but they’ve been horrible at home this season and have had issues stringing wins together overall. Cole is still trying to find his footing with a small sample size, but we’re still getting a Hall of Fame pitcher and a cheap price. Bennett is a rookie with just 26.2 innings under his belt, so the jury is still out. I’m not sure how you turn down the Yankees and the low price here, given the gap on the mound. Give me the Yankees to stop the bleeding against their rival.
