Key Stats
New York Yankees
Clarke Schmidt will get the start for the Yankees in today’s game. Schmidt has started the season 0-0 with a 5.06 ERA and struck out five batters. Anthony Volpe leads the team with a .423 batting average, 11 hits, and an OBP of .500. Oswaldo Cabrera has smashed a team-high two home runs and drove in seven RBIs.
Toronto Blue Jays
The Blue Jays will send Kevin Gausman to the mound for today’s game. Gausman has started the season 0-0 with a 2.08 ERA and six strikeouts. Justin Turner leads the team with a .280 batting average, four RBIs, an OBP of .400, and seven hits. George Springer has smacked a team-high two home runs.
Game Prediction
Today’s game will likely be a low-scoring affair again with Schmidt and Gausman on the mound. Despite getting shut out yesterday, New York is the better team. Don’t let the score fool you; both teams were terrible in the game. Stroman and Kikuchi had solid days pitching and were able to keep the scoreboard clean. Today, I am running it back with the Yankees to win and deadlock the series 1-1.
Final Pick
New York Yankees (-115)
