Rotoworld Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes the value on the Yankees to win the AL East:
“This series will be a defining one in the AL East race that has seen the Toronto Blue Jays take ahold of. Toronto is up in the series season and swept New York earlier in the season, so it’s an ideal time for the Yankees to strike back.
The odds are down to plus-money on the Yankees to win the division, which could be back to -150 with a series win over the Blue Jays.”
