Oakland RHP James Kaprielian is 0-4 with a 4.57 ERA at home. The Athletics are the second-worst team this season in runs per game, averaging 3.36 overall. But at home, they score a league-worst 2.82 per contest. Over its last 12 games, Oakland has only scored more than three runs on four occasions. The A's are facing RHP Jameson Taillon, who gave up three runs over five innings against Oakland on June 29. He’s been a little shaky over the last month, posting a 4.25 ERA in that span. However, Taillon still has the league’s best bullpen (2.97 ERA) behind him. The Yankees also welcome back Giancarlo Stanton (Achilles) to the lineup. Take New York -1.5 runs at -135.
The Yankees travel west for a road series against the A's. With New York having Wednesday off, this should be an advantageous spot for the Yankees to build upon their three-game winning streak. Furthermore, they have to get back to high-level play on the road where they are 2-9 since July 21. I'm taking the Yankees on the run line.
