Derek Jeter will travel with his Miami Marlins today when they open a 2-game Interleague set against the New York Yankees. The Yankee great insists he will keep an eye on the game but will not be in attendance. It’s got to be a tough situation for number 2. New York will have their ace, Luis Severino, on the hill. Severino was not at his best in his last turn but is still 2-1 on the season, with a 3.50 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP. Miami will give the nod to lefty Caleb Smith. Smith is winless on the season and owns a 4.72 ERA with a 1.58 WHIP. The Bombers feast on southies, going 4-1 in their last 5 games against them. They are 6-0 in their last 6 Interleague games and have won the last 4 out of 5 match-ups against the Marlins. Boston has already been postponed so if this game gets played, look for Stanton to have a big day against his old team.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK YANKEES
