It has not been a very bright season for the Padres, but they have shown some signs of life of late. That’s the expectation they also have on Joe Musgrove when he gets on the mound for this matchup against the Yankees on the road. Musgrove has picked up a loss in each of his last two starts, including in the Padres’ 4-2 defeat at the hands of the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park last Saturday.
He is sporting a high .329 BABIP, which suggests that better days could be ahead for him. As for the Padres’ offense, it recently also looked great when the team scored 14 runs in the first two games of their series against the Washington Nationals. For what it’s worth. Musgrove is getting 5.25 worth of runs in support per nine innings.
Starting pitcher: Joe Musgrove (1-2, 6.75 ER)
Betting on the New York Yankees
- Season record 2023: 30-22
- Moneyline: (+105)
- Run Line: (+1.5, -150)
- Over/Under: (9.0)
All odds are provided by DraftKings.
The Yankees will have a big-league newbie starting for them on the mound for this game, with righty Randy Vasquez getting the call to the majors. Although he posted a 4.85 ERA over 42 2/3 innings in the minors this season, he looked so much better over his last four starts, during which he recorded a 2.14 ERA.
In any case, Aaron Judge and the rest of the Yankees’ offense will be looking forward to supplying enough runs to make Vasquez feel as comfortable as they could in his MLB debut. Judge has slashed .353/.542/.765 with two home runs and five RBI in his last five games, while Gleyber Torres has hit .333 with three blasts in the same stretch for the Yankees, who are 7-1 in their last eight home games versus the Padres.
Starting pitcher: Randy Vasquez (0-0, 0.00 ERA)
JefeBet Prediction
The Padres batter Vasquez in his very first start as a big leaguer, but the Yankees will also shine at the plate. Taking the Over for this game.
Prediction: The Yankees win, 7-5.
