Athletics vs Yankees Prediction
The Yankees have had an up-and-down week, and their effort yesterday wasn’t that great. It would be nice to know who the Yankees are throwing out on the mound when writing this article. Regardless, give me the Athletics and the plus money. The Athletics keep doing enough winning to be worth a look in the underdog role.
Severino has also been respectable this season, for the most part, allowing 43 hits and 20 earned runs in 49.2 innings. Severino needs to improve his control as he allows too many free bases, but he should have motivation here after spending his first eight seasons with the Yankees. After a bad 2023 season, the Yankees let Severino walk and sign with the rival Mets. The 31-year-old Severino should have an extra pep in his step for this one. Give me the Athletics and the more favorable price.
