Yankees at Brewers picks and predictions

Prediction

Yankees 5, Brewers 4

Moneyline

The YANKEES (-140) are worth a look as moderate favorites in the interleague series finale.

New York pounded the Brewers (+115) in Saturday’s outing, and it has won 6 of the past 10 outings. The offense has been sink or swim lately, going for 5 or more runs in 6 of the past 10 outings, but it has 1 or no runs in 3 of those games, too.

Run line/Against the spread

The Brewers +1.5 (-145) aren’t a terrible play if you’d like a little bit of insurance and don’t like Milwaukee straight up. However, the only drawback is Myers. He is a bit of a wild card, as this is his first-ever home start and just his second career outing in the show. Facing the Yankees could be a mess, especially after they rolled up 15 runs Saturday.

AVOID, and just focus on the moneyline.

Over/Under

OVER 8.5 (-110) is the lean, but only play a half-unit at most.

The Over cashed in the first 2 Games of the series, with an average of 15.5 RPG. Even if we have substantially fewer runs, the way things have gone, we shouldn’t have trouble getting to 9 combined runs.

The Over has hit in 3 in a row for Milwaukee, with 12 or more runs in each of the outings.
