The Tampa Bay Rays look to gain even more ground on the New York Yankees in the second game of a three-game series. Read on for our Yankees-Rays MLB picks.
On July 8, the Yankees had a 15.5-game lead in the AL East. After Friday night's 9-0 Rays victory in the series opener, that lead has been whittled down to five games. The pressure is starting to mount for New York, especially since these two teams meet five more times over the next two weeks.
Here are my MLB picks and predictions for Saturday's game between the Yankees and Rays (odds via Caes ars Sportsbook, DraftKings Sportsbook; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).
