Taking the YANKEES here. Pretty simple in my thinking here. New York has been out on the coast a few days. They haven't lost 3 in a row in nearly a month. Their top bullpen guys are all ready to come in if needed tonight. A's back home after a 1-5 road trip that ending yesterday afternoon in Miami (loser for me on the under). Obviously, Oakland is better at home, 18-13, than the road, 9-25. They have dropped 3 straight, 6 of 7, 7 of 10 and 13 of 18. I do like Gray. But fact is the guy hasn't put it all together since 2015. He is 1-2 4.44 ERA in 4 career games vs Yanks. He has been good at home so far. 2-0 2.92 ERA in 4 starts. He has only really been bad in 1 start his year giving up 7 in 4+ back at the end of May. Oakland is 7-19 in his last 26 starts which is a tough trend to ignore. I did drop a play on LAA earlier this week when we faded the Yanks coming west after their Sunday win. LAA did win the next day. Yanks have won 4 straight here in Oakland and 6 of the last 7 in the series. We'll take the short road faves tonight. 4* Money Maker NY YANKEES
