Yankees vs Diamondbacks Prediction
Both teams are tied 5-5 in their last 10 meetings and the Angels are 4-1 in their last 5 meetings in LA.
In this Yankees vs Diamondbacks Prediction, the Yankees are coming as -110 road favorites. I like the Yankees in a bounce-back spot today, after a surprising loss yesterday with Cam Schlitter on the mound. Will Warren is the far safer option on the mound than Corbin Burnes, as Warren has been red-hot with just two earned runs across his last three starts, while Burnes was torched by the Marlins in his second start of the season. The Yankees have a better offense and the best bullpen in baseball. Take the Yankees on the moneyline in this one.
