Marlins vs Yankees Prediction

I’ll probably still lean toward the Yankees. Cortes has been okay but not spectacular over his first two starts. He’s coming off his first loss of the year against the Diamondbacks, giving up three earned in 5.0 innings on eight hits and two walks. That said, Cortes shouldn’t have a ton of issues versus the Miami hitters if he’s on point.

On Sunday the Yankees got a great effort from the offense, mostly thanks to the one big inning. The big homer from Stanton certainly helped, but it was a solid game all around for most of the batters. The pen was good too with no earned in 4.2 frames. New York should be fine here if they play to their capabilities.
