New York at Tampa Bay

Premium Pick

Corey Kluber (2.25 ERA) looked good in the opener, and New York's deep bullpen is a good fit for him, limiting his innings. The Yankees are 81-43 when the line is -100 to -150. This is the home opener for Tampa Bay, raising their 2020 American League Champions banner at Tropicana Field. However, the Rays are reeling, losing four straight and getting outscored 42-23 on the season. Tampa Bay's 41-year old Rich Hill (9.00 ERA) got pounded in his first start by Miami, and it won't be any easier facing this Bronx Bombers lineup. Hill likes to nibble around the plate (13 walks in 26 innings at home last year), and that won't work against the talented and patient Yankees. Play New York.
