Premium Pick

The New York Yankees did not make the playoffs last year, so they went out and did what the Yankees do - reloaded with high-priced free agents. The problem is that this is the oldest aged team in MLB and injuries will play a part in their season. McCann, Cervelli, Teixiera, Jeter, Volarte, Roberts, Ryan, and closer David Robertson are all dealing with injuries right now. The Yankees lineup has not produced as it is, and right now it is a short lineup. New York will be on the hook with perhaps a third-string catcher and a rookie pitcher for this one. This will also be a second game of a doubleheader, and with few options many may be forced to play in both games. The Cubs haven't found much magic, but they have in interleague play where they are 13-6 in their last 19, and are catching the Yankees short here. Take the Cubs in game 2.
