Yankees vs Angels Prediction
The Yankees are the better team and should be favored at home, but this line is too steep for a guy like Schmidt. Through 55 innings, Schmidt has been a respectable pitcher with a 3.60 ERA and 1.24 WHIP, but this isn’t Tarik Skubal or Paul Skenes. A -200 price is insane, especially when we just saw the Yankees get swept by the Red Sox. The Angels have done enough winning to be worth a look in the underdog role, and Soriano has been solid himself with a 3.86 ERA and 1.50 WHIP. In 48 road innings, Soriano has a 3.19 ERA and a .254 allowed batting average. I’ll take a shot with the Angels and the big price.
