The New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Angels had their first game rescheduled due to the rainy weather in the Bronx. Game 1 will be moved to Wednesday, followed by Game 2 as a doubleheader. It's going to be a tiring night for both teams with back-to-back games. However, some fans will have a great time watching two contests on the same day.
Luis Gil will take the mound in Game 1 for New York, while manager Aaron Boone has decided to send Will Warren in Game 2. Warren, a rookie with a 6.75 ERA, appeared in one game for the Yanks and recorded six strikeouts. The Yanks will need their bats to open up and support Warren.
This is a great chance for the team to experiment more on Warren, especially against the Angels, who are struggling to make ends meet. Gil is predicted to win Game 1, which should give the Yanks a decent start to this series.
The Angels are going with Carson Fulmer as their starter in Game 1. Fulmer, with a 0-2 record and a 3.69 ERA, is also a rookie but has pitched more than Warren in the majors. The Angels will have no other option but to help their pitcher against their opponent's strong offense.

Yankees vs. Angels Prediction
This could be a high-scoring game as both teams have rookie pitchers on the mound. Offensively, the Yanks have the upper hand against the Angels with dominant and veteran hitters at the plate. Aaron Judge's hot hitting streak and Juan Soto's potential to get on base will help them secure a win.
The bullpen will also play an important role in Game 2. Warren is expected to last for five innings depending on the situation, while Fulmer will need full support from the offense if they want to win. Nevertheless, an easy opportunity awaits the Yanks to help them dominate at the top of the AL East.
Prediction: New York Yankees -1.5 (-250)
