On Thursday, June 27, the New York Yankees will make their second trip of the season to Toronto for a meeting with the Blue Jays. A four game series, the stage is set for a showdown before the AL East team with the best record, and the team that currently sports the worst.
Although the Yankees will send out Carlos Rodon, one of their strongest pitchers, the Bronx Bombers' have not been having an easy go when it comes to pitching. Over the past seven days, the team's 6.91 ERA is the lowest out of all 30 MLB teams. Moreover, manager Aaron Boone's club will enter the game with an 2-8 record over their last ten.

For the Blue Jays, things are looking even more grim. Despite having a franchise-record $247 million on their payroll, the team's 36-43 record places them 14.5 games behind the Yankees in the AL East. After consecutive sweeps at the hands of the Boston Red Sox and Cleveland Guardians, the Jays split a two-game series at Fenway before coming home.
Tonight, Jose Berrios will bring his 6-6 record and 3.43 ERA to the mound for the Toronto Blue Jays.

Yankees vs Blue Jays Prediction
Both teams are playing some of the worst baseball of their respective seasons. The Yankees were just outscored by the New York Mets - a team with 13 fewer wins - 21-9 over two games. Meanwhile, the Jays are looking increasingly likely to be big-time sellers come deadline day.
On balance, Carlos Rodon has better career figures against the Jays than Jose Berrios has against New York. As such, it is reasonable to project a narrow Yankees win.
Prediction: Yankees -1.5 (110)
