Shane’s Free Pick

I don’t trust Mahle, and the Yankees bats are going to have no issue against him. The Twins aren’t going to run up the score here against Cortes Jr. Look for the Twins to have issues scoring even one runs, and that will be the difference here. Back the Yankees on the run line to cash.
