Picks for 10/10/24
MLB
8:08 PM EST
Rotation # 915
Yankees -1.5 runs over Royals +110 (win)
Cole/Wacha
The Yankees offense was non-existent last night besides the bat of 34-year-old DH Giancarlo Stanton. The Royals’ offense finished dead last in many offensive categories in September. You rarely see a team limp into the postseason playing as poorly offensively as Kansas City. It’s not realistic to win low-scoring games night after night. They had their chance last night and couldn’t win a close, low-scoring game. Michael Wacha pitched well for the Royals this season but is historically bad in the postseason. Yankees starter Gerrit Cole’s playoff numbers are even better than his outstanding career numbers. What are the odds that the Yankees bats will stay silent once again? Look for the series to end tonight. Take the Yankees run line -1.5 +110.
