Christian Yelich has produced numbers in 2023. Batting .274, 17 home runs, and 70 RBIs. Whether he is home or away numbers have stayed pretty consistent. In the last thrifty days there have been some struggles. He has hit .198 in that stretch with one home run and six RBIs.
Jasson Domínguez hit his fourth homer and swiped a base for the first time as a big leaguer Friday against the Breweers. The homer was a two-run shot off Colin Rea that accounted for the Yankees’ only scoring tonight. If the current pattern holds, Domínguez’s next homer will come Sunday; he’s gone deep in every other game since debuting.

MLB BETTING PREDICTION:
The reputation of the Yankees lineup must be what gives them an edge. But the breakdown of the teams shows Milwaukee is the better bet. Yankee Stadium has not been an impenetrable force this year as New York is 38-35 at home. Milwaukee has a 38-34 record on the road this year. Last night’s win validates the gut feeling that there is a reason Milwaukke leads their division and New York is scrambling for wild card relevancy, The Brewers are better. Pick them.
