Yankees right fielder Aaron Judge drove in all of his club’s runs in their 5-2 loss to the Cubs on Saturday.

Cubs vs. Yankees Betting Prediction
I like the Yankees here. A couple of relevant statistics will make the case for New York winning outright on Sunday afternoon. The Bronx Bombers are 17-15 straight up in interleague games and 43-26 straight up in non-division games this year. What’s more, New York is 30-18 straight up as the home team and 51-36 straight up as a favorite in 2025. And finally, the Yankees are 41-38 straight up when playing on no rest and 49-41 straight up when playing an opponent on equal rest this season. The pick is New York -129 on the money line over Chicago at Bovada.lv.
