New York Yankees DFS Spin
Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo drove in both of his team’s runs in their 2-1 extra-innings victory over the Mariners on Wednesday night. In that game, the 35-year-old left-handed hitter went 2 for 4 with a single, a double, and 2 RBIs. For the season, Rizzo is hitting .219 with 8 homers, 33 RBIs, and a .615 OPS across 347 plate appearances. Anthony Rizzo is batting .282 with a .792 OPS during day games this season, making him an intriguing DFS play on Thursday.
Seattle Mariners DFS Spin
Mariners first baseman Justin Turner reached base 3 times in his team’s 2-1 loss to the Yankees on Wednesday. Hitting out of the #4 spot in the lineup, the former Dodger went 2 for 4 with a double, a homer, an RBI, a run scored, and a walk. Across 504 plate appearances this season, Turner is hitting .257 with 11 homers, 48 RBIs, and an OPS of .740. Justin Turner is batting .291 with an OPS of .839 over the past 30 days. That fact makes the 39-year-old worth a look in most DFS formats.

Yankees vs. Mariners Betting Prediction
The Yankees have already beaten the Mariners twice in this series. I like New York to complete the sweep on Thursday afternoon. The Yankees will be sending righty Clarke Schmidt to the hill for this contest. In 13 starts this season, Schmidt is 5-3 with a 2.41 ERA, a 1.13 WHIP, a 9.4 K/9, and an opponent batting average of .227. Perhaps most importantly, New York has a record of 10-3 this season in games started by Clarke Schmidt.
He’s already faced Seattle this year. Schmidt took a loss against the Mariners on May 21st but didn’t pitch poorly. In that contest, Clarke Schmidt went 5 innings and permitted 2 earned runs on 4 hits and 2 walks. He struck 6 in a 6-3 Yankees defeat. I think Clarke Schmidt pitches much better this time around and the Yankees win the game outright. I’m taking New York on the money line in this one.
