YANKEES VS PHILLIES PREDICTION
The Yankees’ Taillon has pitched well in his previous 3 starts with a 3.52 ERA and Velasquez has struggled in his 2 recent starts with an 11.57 ERA. The Yankees have a much better bullpen despite Chapman blowing the previous game against the Twins, it should actually provide added fuel to the fire of this Yankees team today. New York’s offense has clicked with 22 runs in the last 3 games while the Phillies offense has been inconsistent with 11 runs in the previous 3 games. Stanton and Judge have been hitting the ball well and both have home runs off Velasquez in the past. Take the Yankees to get the road win as they should beat up on the Velasquez and the Phillies bullpen.
