It isn’t often that one would suggest going against Yankees ace Gerrit Cole at home. Friday seems like the perfect spot when he faces the Tampa Bay Rays. This will be a huge AL East series. And getting Cole back is great for the Yankees, who are trying to compete with the sizzling Rays.
The problem is how far Cole can go in his first start after returning from surgery and rehab. Tampa Bay has been dominant at home but can also win on the road. Nick Martinez is the best option on MLB lines BetUS because he is 4-1 with a 1.51 ERA, and the Yankees won’t get enough innings out of Cole to stay with the Rays’ righty.
