Betting on the Cincinnati Reds (+1.5)
Regular Season Record: 33-54
The Reds stunned the Yankees Tuesday night to kick off this three-game series with a 4-3 victory. Not only that but the Reds have now won five games in a row. Mike Minor will look to help the Red sustain their form, as he gets the nod to start against the Bronx Bombers later tonight. Minor, however, is just 1-6 this season with an awful 6.63 ERA and a 1.42 WHIP. In his last start, he allowed 4 earned runs on 5 hits in a 4-2 home loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on July 7. That being said, Minor has held the Yankees’ current roster to just a collective .150 batting average. On offense, the Reds are relying a lot on Brandon Drury’s bat. Drury is hitting .289 this month with 2 home runs and 10 RBIs.
The Reds are 5-1 in their last 6 interleague outings.
Betting on the New York Yankees (-1.5)
Regular Season Record: 61-26
The Yankees are on a skid, as they have now lost three games in a row. Still, their recent defeats won’t stop them from being viewed as among the top contenders for the 2022 World Series title. The Yankees were on the cusp of ending their losing skid as they had a 3-run lead in the ninth inning of Tuesday’s game against Cincinnati, but Clay Holmes had a rare disaster on the mound. In any case, New York has everything it needs to bounce back. Among those is Luis Severino, who gets the start for Game 2. Severino is 5-2 this season with a 3.11 ERA and 1.02 WHIP. The Yankees’ offense remains scary. New York leads the majors in home runs (146) and RBIs (430), though they are slashing just .245/.328/.442.
The Yankees are 13-3 in their last 16 interleague games.
Writer’s Prediction
The Yankees win, 8-3.
