Yankees vs Rockies Prediction & Pick
The Yankees have a great shot at victory any time Gerrit Cole takes the mound. While some starting pitchers struggle away from home, that hasn't been the case for AL Cy Young contender (+300, No. 2 on FanDuel Sportsbook). In seven away starts so far, Cole is 3-1 with a 2.74 ERA while averaging 8.6 strikeouts per nine innings.
On the other side, Rockies starter Chase Anderson is still looking for his first win of the 2023 campaign. While his 0-4 with a 6.89 ERA through 12 appearances (10 starts) is bad enough, Anderson's play has only gotten worse la tely. He's giving up 27 runs and eight homers on 30 hits over his last 13 1/3 innings, which is good for a putrid 18.22 ERA over that span.
I'm taking the Yankees to win in the Mile High City. An Anderson appearance usually means bad news for the Rockies, who've been outscored 59-14 on aggregate in his last four appearances. With how loaded the Yankees' lineup is, I don't expect the Rockies' fortunes to change this afternoon.
Back the Yankees to win in a lopsided manner.
Final Score Prediction:'Yankees: 9 | Rockies: 3
Yankees vs Rockies Best Bet
After a slow start to the season, Giancarlo Stanton has finally woken up. The Yankees slugger has five hits in his last three games with four of them resulting in home runs. He now gets to face Anderson, who has surrendered 14 home runs in his last seven starts.
That's not even to mention how Stanton has a pair of HRs with a .429 batting average in 14 previous at-bats against Anderson. In other words, I like the two-time Silver Slugger's odds of hitting another round-tripper today.
