Probable Pitcher: Jameson Taillon (1-1, 3.26 ERA)
Taillon will be on the mound in the 2nd game of the series for the Yanks. Taillon allowed two earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four across 4.2 innings Thursday against Baltimore. He did not factor into the decision.

Stripling allowed two runs and five hits in four innings. He walked none and struck out three.
Probable Pitcher:
Alek Manoah (4-0, 1.44 ERA) will be on the mound for the Blue Jays in the 1st game of the series. Manoah recorded the win, allowing only three hits and a walk while striking out seven over seven innings in Thursday's 1-0 win over the Red Sox. He earned the win and threw 6 scoreless innings and struck out 7 batters against the Yankees earlier in the season.
BETTING TRENDS
NY Yankees are 4-2 SU in their last 6 games against Toronto.
NY Yankees are 6-1 SU in their last 7 games on the road.
Toronto are 9-4 SU in their last 13 games.
The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Toronto's last 6 games against NY Yankees.
Prediction
The Yankees have now won 10 straight games and 6 of their last 7 games on the road but they'll face Alek Manoah in the second game of the series. Manoah dominated the Yankees holding them to zero runs for 6 innings. The Blue Jays have won 9 of their 14 games at home this season and they won't have a better chance to beat the Yanks than with Manoah on the mound. Take the Blue Jays.
