The Yankees have won six of their last eight games when scoring four or more runs. DJ LeMahieu leads the Yankees with 103 hits and 39 RBI while Aaron Judge and Gio Urshela have combined for 177 hits and 89 RBI. Jordan Montgomery gets the ball, and he is 4-5 with a 3.78 ERA and 110 strikeouts this season. This will be Montgomery’s first career game against the Marlins.

Jordan Montgomery is coming off his best month of the season where he allowed 21 hits and nine runs in his last 27.2 innings. The Miami Marlins have punted on the season and don’t have any offense to speak of. The pitching staff is showing up, but the fish eventually cave due to a lack of run support. The Marlins are fade city the rest of the way. Give me the Yankees and the RL for max betting value.
