Reasons to support the Yankees
The Yankees have been stout on the mound all year. New York pitching his staff and bullpen continue to be lights out for this club. The Yankees rank third in the majors in ERA (3.28) and his WHIP (1.11). They have conceded only 4 goals in 5 straight games.
Right-handed Jameson Tyrone owns an impressive frame (6’5, 230 lbs) with a calm poise. Taillon doesn’t often surprise him on the mound with an abundance of pitches. The 30-year-old knows how to set up batters well and freeze them consistently. His yearly record is 11-2 and he has a 3.95 ERA. In his final matchup against Boston, he got his five strikeouts and gave up one earned run.
Why I support the Red Sox
Third baseman Rafael Devers is an impactful player with good instincts. Devers has a smooth glove out of the corner and a solid throwing arm. A two-time All-Star he has the pitch awareness skills needed to succeed. Devers is 12th in the majors in batting average (.303), sixth in OPS (.930), and tied for eighth in doubles (31).
Left fielder Alex Verdugo was Boston’s athletic playmaker. Verdugo has the speed to cover a lot of ground in the outfield.
