Yankees vs Mariners Prediction

The offense is key to success in this game. Given the past performances, the Yankees have a better shot if their offense opens up. The Yanks are predicted to win if they continue to stay hot at-bats.

Even if Gilbert gains control on the mound, the Mariners will need to deal with Stroman, who has been dominant for his team. Both teams are predicted to score, but Yanks are predicted to get some extra runs.
