The AL East-leading New York Yankees will take their 3-game winning streak west tonight to open a 4-game set with the Oakland Athletics. The A’s are the worst team in the American League and are a pathetic 20-41 at The Coliseum. If the Yankees can’t win this one, they’ve got issues. Tonight’s expected starters are Jameson Taillon for New York and James Kaprielian for Oakland. Taillon is 11-4 with a 4.00 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP. Kaprielian is 3-7 with a 4.29 ERA and 1.33 WHIP. The Yankees could get a boost to their offense tonight with the expected return of their superstar, Giancarlo Stanton.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK YANKEES
