Following a Friday loss, the Yankees aim to bounce back and level the series in Milwaukee tonight.
This evening’s contest features Cam Schlittler taking on Kyle Harrison, a pitching duel where New York holds a nice advantage.
Read all about it in my Brewers vs. Yankees predictions and MLB picks for Saturday, May 9.
Who will win Yankees vs Brewers today: Yankees moneyline (-135)
Cam Schlittler's started the season at an elite level and has remained consistent. He’s as good as any pitcher in baseball this year, and he has a matchup edge here. I’d play the Yankees to -170 because of it.
His fastball run value ranks in the 100th percentile of the sport, and his 96th percentile chase rate of just over 38% gives him an elite out-of-zone weapon against a Milwaukee Brewers lineup that must be disciplined to survive him.
The Brew Crew simply doesn’t have the profile of a team that’s going to hurt a guy with a lot of swing-and-miss stuff.
On the other side of things, Kyle Harrison is a talented pitcher, but his Bottom 24 percentile off-speed stuff may give him issues.
This feels like a scenario where a pitcher getting off his fastball (which the Yankees force) is more detrimental than actually throwing the pitch. We’ve seen it a few times this season, though, and it usually works out for New York.
COVERS INTEL: Cam Schlitter’s has the highest overall run value for a starting pitcher in baseball.
Yankees vs Brewers Over/Under pick: Under 7.5 (-115)
The story of the total is Schlittler, as you might expect. The Under has cashed in three of the last four starts.
Although I picked the New York Yankees to win, I don't think their offense will do enough to push this Over on its own.
Harrison will have some issues in this matchup, but his hard-hit suppression (88th percentile) and barrel rate (73rd percentile) should keep the Yankees offense in check. I’d play this to -120.
