The Yankees (45-19) are fresh off their 2nd straight series sweep and have won 8 games in a row. The pitching has been overachieving to this point in the season and the duo Juan Soto and Aaron Judge have been the catalysts to the offense. Soto leads the team average (.318) while Judge leads them in homeruns (21) and RBIs (54). As a team, they have been winning their games by an average of 3.5 runs over this current 8-game winning streak. They now host the Dodgers (39-35) in a 3-game series which could be a potential future World Series matchup. The Dodgers have won 7 of their last 9 and will be primed for this brand matchup. Trailing 2-1 in the 8th of their last game, they rallied for 4 runs and took the win in San Diego. While the Yankees have Soto and Judge, the Dodgers have a formidable tandem in Shohei Ohtani and Mookie Betts. Ohtani has an identical average to Soto but his homerun and RBI numbers are a tick lower than Judge. The Dodgers will have Yoshinobu Yamamoto (6-2, 3.32) on the mound while the Yankees will counter with Cody Poteet (2-0, 2.45). This opener should set the tone for the rest of the short 3-game series.

Our New York Yankees vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
The Dodgers have not had much success against the Bronx bombers over the past 6 meetings. The Yanks are currently fighting with the Phillies for the best record in baseball and have been playing at the highest level of all teams in the American League. Cody Poteet has been pitching great through his early 2 starts of the season. We like the Yankees offense to be the difference in this game and likely the series. They simply have too many bats that can change things with just one swing.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
