New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays Prediction

Leading into Monday’s AL East matchup between New York and Toronto, the oddsmakers have yet to set a line for this game, but look this game to feature a lot of runs. Although Kevin Gausman had a strong outing his last time out, he was previously struggling on the mound, giving up 5 runs in 2 straight outings. I recommend taking the over.
