Yankees vs Blue Jays Prediction

The Blue Jays are 7-3 in their last 10 meetings against the Yankees, and are 6-1 in their last 7 meetings in Toronto. Under is 4-1-1 in their last 6 meetings.

In this Yankees vs Blue Jays Prediction, the Blue Jays are coming as -120 home favorites. Both pitchers are not coming into this matchup in good form, as Gausman has back-to-back games with 4 earned runs, while Gil for the Yankees has 4+ earned runs in three of his last four starts. But Gausman has been very effective against the Yankees with season, having just one earned runs in his last two starts against them, while Gil has been weaker on the road for the Yankees, with a 4.38 road ERA. The Jays also have a better bullpen and more rested arms, and I like them to get the job done at home in Game 1 of this series.
