Marlins at Yankees picks and predictions
Prediction
Yankees 6, Marlins 4
Moneyline
PASS: the Yanks are a lean but only a value up to about -215.
Run line/Against the spread
None of Miami’s last 10 losses have been by multiple runs. A Yankee offense making better contact is more dangerous than what was a bottom-3rd group a year ago. These Yankee batters do not chase bad pitches, and that’s problematic for Weathers, who owns a high 9.4% career walk rate.
FanDuel Sportsbook offers the best leverage here: consider a partial-unit play on NEW YORK -1.5 (-110).
Over/Under
Both offenses have been hampered by some ball-in-play bad luck so far.
Weathers’ command issues could set up a crooked-number inning or 2 for New York, and peg Stroman as being due some regression this 3rd time out.
The Over has been the play the last 2 nights and has not cashed. It’s the play again here, but to a slightly lesser degree: go in with a partial-unit play on the OVER 8.5 (-115).
