Premium Pick

The New York Yankees made a lot of trades last season, and now have the top rated farm system in MLB. They are considered to be a couple of years away from returning to glory. They are going to have to be taken more seriously, as they have assembled a team that is hitting, pitching, getting the long ball, and a top-flight bullpen. They lead the majors with eight games of scoring 10+ runs and hung an 11 spot on KC last night. The Royals are not swinging the bats at all, having scored three or fewer runs in 24 of their 39 games, or 61.5% of all games. Teams that score three or fewer runs have won just 21.9% of all games this season, and the numbers make it very tough to find any value on the Royals. The Yanks are 23-9 after a 1-4 start, and have it all going now. Play on the Yankees.
