Blue Jays at Yankees 6/25/19 - MLB Picks & Predictions

In Tuesday night MLB action, the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Yankees will continue their series from the Bronx. Last night, Toronto rallied with six runs over the final two innings before falling by a 10-8 final score. Freddy Galvis homered and drove in four runs in a losing effort for the Blue Jays, who lost for the 50th time this season.

Thirty-five year old southpaw Clayton Richard (0-3 7.46 ERA) will make his seventh start of the season for the Blue Jays. Control has been an issue for Richard, who has walked 15 batters through 25 plus innings of work. The New York Yankees have won 29 of their 43 home games and have homered in 27 straight games. On Monday, Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Hicks each went deep to power the New York offense. Leadoff hitter D.J. LeMahieu collected four hits and scored twice for the Yankees, who have opened up a five game lead over Tampa Bay for first place in the AL East.

New York manager Aaron Boone has yet to name a starting pitcher for this matchup. The Yankees rank ninth in the majors with a 4.01 team ERA and have logged 25 quality starts.
