Yankees vs Guardians Predictions and Picks
The Yankees are 6-4 in their last 10 games and 6-6 on the road. Offensively, New York ranks second in runs scored and on-base percentage, first in slugging percentage, and fourth in batting average. On the pitching side, they rank 14th in ERA. Aaron Judge leads the team in batting average, home runs, and RBIs. The Yankees will look to limit Cleveland's big innings and create one of their own.
Starting on the mound for New York is Carlos Rodon, who is 2-3 with a 4.34 ERA. So far this season, he has had more rough outings than strong ones, but the strikeouts have been there. He's coming off a six-inning shutout performance against the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Guardians are 7-3 in their last 10 games and an impressive 7-1 at home. Offensively, Cleveland ranks 20th in runs scored and 14th in batting average, while their pitching staff ranks 18th in ERA. Steven Kwan leads the team in batting average. The Guardians have won five straight, showing the ability to win both high-scoring and low-scoring games. They've done a good job quieting the Yankees' bats and will look to keep the momentum going.
Luis Ortiz will get the start for Cleveland. He's 2-2 with a 5.48 ERA. Ortiz has pitched well in his last two outings, with his strikeout numbers trending upward. Walks have been an issue at times, but he's done well limiting hits and runs.
Best Bet: New York Moneyline
It's hard to sweep the Yankees, and this offense usually bounces back quickly after being held to one or two runs in a recent game. Both pitchers should rack up some strikeouts, and one big inning could be the difference-maker.
