Toronto Blue Jays vs NY Yankees Prediction

I’m on the over here. I know that Cole’s had some recent success against Toronto, but he’s been hit hard so far this season and the Jays’ offense has woken up a bit in this series. On the other side, Gausman has his ups and downs, but has also been highly erratic at home and I think the Yankees’ bats get to him as well. Give me the over.
