Why you should back the Dodgers

Outfielder Teoscar Hernandez has made an impact in his first season in Los Angeles. Hernandez uses his power at the dish to be a consistent run producer for the Dodgers. The 31-year-old also covers a lot of ground in the outfield. He’s hitting .262 with team-highs in home runs (15) and RBI (47). In Friday’s win over New York, Hernandez went 2-of-4 with a double and two RBI.

First baseman Freddie Freeman is a productive hitter in the Dodgers’ lineup. Freeman has a good eye and stays patient at the plate. The 34-year-old stands at 6-foot-5 and provides a nice target at first. He’s hitting .293 with eight homers and 40 RBI. In yesterday’s win over the Yankees, Freeman recorded two hits, two runs scored and two RBI. See which team to pick here. 

Why you should back the Yankees

Aaron Judge has been a force offensively. Judge has light-tower power that can drive in runs in bunches. The five-time All-Star also has a strong arm from the outfield with superb accuracy. He’s leading the team in home runs (21) and OPS (1.091) but tied for second in RBI (55). In Friday’s loss against Los Angeles, Judge went 2-of-3 with a double and one run driven in.

Shortstop Anthony Volpe has been an effective player for the Yankees this season. Volpe has good range and arm strength to be an effective defender. Offensively, he quickly flips his hips to make contact. His batting average is .285 with six home runs and 25 RBI. He heads into Sunday’s showdown on an eight-game hitting streak. See which team to pick here.
