New York Yankees
The Yankees beat Seattle, 3–1, on Thursday to take three out of four in the series before getting on to Tampa Bay.
JA Happ threw five shutout innings, walking three and giving up just one hit. He struck out seven and earned the win after departing with a 1–0 lead.

The Yankees extended the lead to 3–0 in the eighth, which was a good thing because Aroldis Chapman gave up one in the ninth. Gio Urshela drove in two with a hit in his only at-bat of the game after replacing Miguel Andujar.
In eighty-eight plate appearances, Urshela is hitting .346 with a 148 OPS+. His stellar play has demanded playing time, even in Andujar’s return.
Speaking of returns to the lineup, Aaron Hicks is supposed to come back on Friday in the first game of this series.
Tampa Bay Rays
Tampa Bay beat Arizona in two out of three this week and stayed right at home for a leisurely day off on Thursday before welcoming in the Yankees.
Friday is scheduled to be the first of nineteen meetings between these two teams. Tampa Bay comes into the series two losses and one win better than New York.

The Rays have a more permanent and traditional five-man rotation this season with the addition of Charlie Morton and the emergence of Tyler Glasnow, who will go on Friday. Even so, it’s common for the starter to be TBD and it is on Saturday.
Based on the schedule, it’ll be Yonny Chirinos, who doesn’t always start but has settled into a five-day routine and has pitched very well with the regimen.

Free New York Yankees vs. Tampa Bay Rays MLB Prediction: under.
The Yankees are tough with CC Sabathia out there. They know they’re getting five from him so Aaron Boone lines the bullpen up in the final four. I’ll take the under with Chirinos pitching well on the other side.
