Sadly, the Blue Jays just announced that Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is out against the Yankees, so I no longer like Toronto +1.5 that much. Pretty weak sitting him in a marquee matchup against the AL Cy Young favorite with a team off day coming Monday anyways. So I'm essentially replacing that with this. The Cards have lost two straight one-run games so their bullpen is taxed. NL Rookie of the Year favorite JJ Wetherholt is out. That entire lineup looks rather garbage to me. If the Twins weren't starting struggling lefty Connor Prielipp (2-4, 5.15 ERA) I might just play the ML. But Prielipp has been better at home (2-2, 3.76 ERA).
