In his last start, he allowed 2 ER, 1 HR, and 2 BB with 3 Ks on 6 hits through 5 IP against the Minnesota Twins.

The current betting odds have the Yankees listed as a slight favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Yankees have been hot lately and they have been great at home all season. They just had their win streak snapped by the Twins but they still won that series and their offense has been putting up more runs lately. Their pitching has also been a lot better lately and they should have another great effort from their starter here as Taillon is pitching and he has been very good all year. He hasn't allowed many runs in his starts and the Yankees always get up for him as the team has won a large majority of the games he has started in this year. The Rays have also been playing well and they are closing in on the lead in the AL East as their offense has been much better over the last month. They have Kluber starting here though and he has been so up and down this year in his starts and usually allows some runs in most of his appearances. The Yankees play their best at home and they will be looking to bounce back after their last loss. They also need a series win here against the Rays to keep their division lead intact and they will come to play. The best way to place a bet here is on the Yankees to win this game.
