Don’t let the Garrett Crochet hype throw you off — yes, he’s got swing-and-miss stuff and a sub-2 ERA, but this is not the spot to back him.

Boston’s bullpen is completely gassed after Buehler got shelled last night. The Red Sox have lost 9 of their last 12, and even with Crochet dealing lately, they haven’t been able to back him up. That’s a major red flag coming into Yankee Stadium against one of the hottest lineups in baseball.

The Yankees are raking. They’ve scored 4+ runs in 9 of their last 11 games and just tagged Boston for 14 hits in a 9-run outburst on Friday. Judge is locked in, Chisholm is 8-for-16 since coming back, and this team is clicking at the plate.

Crochet’s never faced this version of the Yankees, and while he may miss bats early, it’s a tough ask to go deep in the Bronx against this order — especially when the bullpen behind him is running on fumes.

Add in the fact that the Yankees have won 20 of their last 27 and are averaging over 5 runs per game in that stretch, and I love this spot for the Yankees Team Total Over 3.5 Runs.

The number’s low because of Crochet’s recent dominance — but that’s exactly why it’s value.

Let’s take advantage.

Pick: Yankees Team Total Over 3.5
