- AL EAST DOG OF THE MONTH - The New York Yankees are going to annihilate the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 1 of the doubleheader. It's not hard to see the pitching mismatch, as the Yankees are going with Max Fried (4-0, 1.42) while the Blue Jays are handing the ball to Kevin Gausman (2-2, 3.16).
Through five starts, it's hard to ignore what we've seen from Fried, who hasn't allowed more than two earned runs this season. He's also done a good job of keeping the ball in the park this month, allowing only two in four starts. And three of those four outings were on the road.
Now Fried is up against a Blue Jays team he's dominated, going 2-0 with a 0.95 ERA in three career starts against them.
Then there's Gausman, who is coming off a rough outing in Houston, where the Astros got him for four runs on six hits and three walks over six innings. Last year in four starts against the Yankees, he went 0-2 with a 9.98 ERA, including a 0-1 showing with a 13.50 ERA in two starts at Yankee Stadium.
Yankees win big in the first game.
