Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees. The MLB pick is the Boston Red Sox at  -115.  Boston claimed 11 out of their last 14 games against their AL East rival and has overall won four of their last five.  Starting pitcher for the New York Yankees is Andrew Haney, who has struggled in the three starter games for the team ever since he departed from the Los Angeles Angels.  Allowing a total of 15 earned runs over 15 hits across 15 innings, Heaney caused the Yankees to give up two of their three outings.  Final Score Prediction: The Boston Red Sox win at 6-3.
