The Toronto Blue Jays have taken two of the first three games against the New York Yankees and will look to put an exclamation point on this four-game set in the series finale. Toronto hasn't exactly mashed its way to victory but has managed to win twice (as an MLB betting underdog) by keeping the Yankee bats silent, including getting by New York…

TAMPA - If you're like us and already made a prediction as to which 28 players will make the Yankees' Opening Day roster, let's hope you used pencil.

The Minnesota Twins have been all over the place of late. On the heels of back-to-back American League Central division titles, the Twins collapsed in 2021. They finished last in the division and were sellers at the MLB trade deadline, most notably moving Jose Berrios and Nelson Cruz. This offseason, Minnesota made a 180, as they were one of the…

The Minnesota Twins enter the 2021 offseason with numerous questions across the board, and with a large number of positions with major question marks, it's not so easy for Twins fans and writers to make real predictions at what could happen.

The New York Yankees have taken two close games to start their season-opening series but a series sweep - especially against a division rival - is never easy. We break down the matchup - and why the Red Sox should fight back - in our SNB betting picks. The first Sunday Night Baseball game of the season features a rivalry matchup between the Boston…

The Yankees have accomplished everything they need to in the regular season. With the American League East in their possession and no chance of catching the Astros for the AL's top seed, the only thing left to play for is a 100-win season. That means they can finally look ahead. The playoffs (and a first-round bye) are now a certainty, and the…
