Aaron Judge continues to wreak havoc this season, and my Yankees vs. Royals predictions expect more of the same tonight.

There are several avenues you can take, but my MLB picks for Tuesday, June 10 are going with an RBI prop.

Yankees vs Royals prediction

My Yankees vs Royals best bet: Aaron Judge Over 0.5 RBI (+105 at BetMGM)

Aaron Judge ranks among the MLB leaders in virtually every offensive category. While we can feel comfortable with vig around -130 for him to get 2+ total bases or -110 to go Over 2.5 hits + runs + RBI, I'm going a step further and taking the All-Star outfielder to drive in a run.

Kansas City Royals left-hander Noah Cameron has a sparkling 0.85 ERA, which may be more smoke and mirrors than reality. He hasn't missed bats (5.40 K/9), and his expected ERA sits at 3.18. That's still respectable, but it's leaps and bounds beyond his current rate.

Judge feasts on southpaws. He's batting .422 with seven home runs in this handedness matchup in 2025. You could take Judge in the home run market, but +230 isn't a long enough number for me here. I'd rather play it a little safer and bank on him to get an RBI, still at plus money.

The New York Yankees outfielder hits second or third in the batting order, giving him ample opportunity to take his hacks. With Cameron unlikely to suddenly start generating whiffs, this matchup will prove fruitful early on.

Aaron Judge Over 0.5 RBI

Max Fried to record the win

Bobby Witt Jr. 1+ hits

BetMGM has the slightly better price on Judge's RBI prop, but bet365 allows for Yankees SP Max Fried to record the win as an SGP leg.

Fried leads MLB pitchers with eight wins and has finished the sixth inning in nine of his 13 starts this season, including when he allowed two runs in 6 2/3 en route to a win vs. the Royals on April 15.

Bobby Witt Jr. is hitting .319 vs. left-handers, and for as good as Fried's been, he still gives up enough contact that a few hits are to be expected along the way.
