Yankees vs Athletics Prediction

The Athletics don’t win when Severino pitches, and he’s allowed 39 hits and 23 earned runs in his last 29 innings. I’m not excited to back Stroman either, as he hasn’t pitched since April, and he hasn’t been good in the 9.1 innings he’s pitched this season. Not a great pitching matchup, but the Yankees are the better team overall, and they’re at home with the quick turnaround. I’ll take a shot with the Yanks, and I’ll lay the RL to shave down the juice.
