The New York Yankees possess one of the league's best offenses against southpaws.

My Red Sox vs. Yankees predictions expect the bats to be on full display against Ranger Suarez. Let's break it all down with my MLB picks for Sunday, June 7.

Who will win Red Sox vs Yankees today: Yankees moneyline (-170)

Ranger Suarez has allowed 13 runs and posted a 6.13 ERA over four games against teams ranking in the Top 10 in OPS vs. left-handed pitching.

The New York Yankees lead the majors in OPS against lefties. Even without Aaron Judge, they’re well-equipped to do damage today. They have five lefties in their projected lineup — Suarez has struggled against left-handed hitters — as well as lefty masher Paul Goldschmidt.

Cam Schlittler should get plenty of run support, and he probably won't need much. He has allowed nine runs over seven starts against Bottom-15 opponents in OPS vs. righties. Bet the Yankees to -180.

Covers COVERS INTEL: Ranger Suarez ranks in the 22nd percentile in whiff rate. He's not missing bats at the moment.

Red Sox vs Yankees Over/Under pick: Over 8 (-115)

The Yankees rank Top-3 in OPS, ISO, OBP, xWOBA, and hard-hit rate against left-handed pitching. 

While Judge is a big part of their dominance, the Yankees still have five batters with ISOs above .200 against lefties this season. A lot of juice remains — and the weather is hot and favorable for power.

Schlittler is a fantastic pitcher, but his xERA is almost a full run higher than his ERA. He's poised for a little bit of regression, and the Red Sox rank ninth in ISO and fourth in batting average against righties the past month. Play the Over 8 to -125.
