NY Yankees vs LA Angels Prediction

I’m on the Yankees here. I just don’t trust Davis Daniel to be able to hold down this Yankee lineup that’s firing on all cylinders right now. Luis Gil on the other side has had control issues at times, but more often than not he’s been a strong contributor this season and I think he can help the Yankees get a huge win to start the series. Give me New York.
