Our Kansas City Royals vs New York Yankees Prediction
The Yankees are the heavy favorite in this game; however, they still look to be the best betting option. This is simply because of the massive difference in starting pitchers. Schlittler has dominated this season and has been even better on the road. In seven away starts this season, Schlittler has allowed six runs (five earned) over 43.1 innings.
Falter, on the other hand, has two home appearances (one start), allowing five earned runs over 2.1. Despite this being a small sample size, there is no reason to believe that Falter will have success against a solid Yankees’ offense.
For that reason, our Kansas City Royals vs New York Yankees prediction is: New York Yankees ML.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
