Prediction
Yankees 6, Marlins 4
Moneyline
PASS: no value here.
Run line/Against the spread
Miami's last 9 losses have all been by multiple runs. A Yankee offense making better contact is more dangerous than what was a bottom-3rd group a year ago.
FanDuel Sportsbook offers the best leverage here: peg NEW YORK -1.5 (+112) as being worth a partial-unit play.
Over/Under
Both offenses have been hampered by some ball-in-play bad luck so far. Puk as a starter is a question mark, and he's backed by a bullpen that has yielded too much hard contact while posting a 5.69 ERA.
Rodon is not the pitcher he was when he was notching a 2.67 ERA over 2021-22 for the Chicago White Sox. The veteran port-sider now runs into more bats and exhibits less control.
The Over 8 was a moderate-strength play Monday but didn't cash when the Marlins failed to participate in the total. The OVER 8 (-115) is an even stronger play in this 2nd game.
