New York Yankees vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction

The Yankees have lost three of the last four games Rodon has pitched, but it’s not really his fault. Rodon has a 2.92 ERA and 0.97 WHIP on the season, and he’s allowed just 12 earned runs in his last 29 innings. Rodon has arguably been his best on the road, where he has a 2.57 ERA and .201 allowed batting average. Scherzer is a Hall of Famer, but he’s 40 years old now and hasn’t had a consistent work load this season. Scherzer has pitched just eight innings, allowing nine hits and five runs in those frames. We’re likely seeing Scherzer on his last leg. Give me the Yankees on Monday night.
