YANKEES VS RAYS PREDICTION
The Rays have dominated the Yankees for the past few seasons especially at Tropicana Field. This season the Rays have beat the Yankees 5 out of 6 games including a sweep at Tropicana with a total of 36 runs compared to the Yankees 20 runs in those games. Playing in the Tropicana dome, the Yankee’s long ball won’t travel as far and with the Rays bullpen completely rested they will be ready to rotate as needed. The Rays hit lefties better than righties at a .221. The Yankees do not hit righties very well at only a .204 this season as a team. Take the Rays at the + money to win this game that should go Under the total.
