Thursday MLB Pick

The 38-19 New York Yankees and the 21-34 Los Angeles Angels will play the rubber game of their 3-game set tonight in Anaheim. Two southpaws are expected to face each other, with Carlos Rodón getting the nod for the Yankees and Patrick Sandoval for the Halos. Rodón is looking like the dominant pitcher he was when he played for the White Sox. The lefty is 6-2 with a 2.95 ERA and a 1.18 WHIP. On the other hand, Sandoval has struggled. He is 2-7 with a 5.60 ERA, a WHIP of 1.55, and in his last turn against Cleveland he allowed 8 runs in just 3-2/3 innings resulting in a 10-4 loss. The Bombers are the best in the AL and 4-0 in Rodón’s last 4 starts. They should take care of business tonight against an Angels team that is just 7-20 at Angel Stadium.
