Yankees vs. Astros Betting Info, Odds and Best Bet

On the whole, gamblers and fans are disgusted with the Yankees.  New York has the highest payroll in the American League.  But they sure don’t play like it.  One wonders what the late great owner George Steinbrenner would have to say about the sorry plight of the pinstripes.  Correlate that in the days of the Boss, heads would roll for less than this.  Houston is a top performer with the MLB betting odds.  Manager Dusty Baker arrived in 2020 to complete his career resume with a World Series title.  Thus far, Baker’s team has a championship look.
