Rangers vs. Yankees Betting Prediction
I like the Yankees in this matchup. A few relevant statistics will show why. New York is 18-12 straight up in American League games and 22-13 straight up in non-division games this season. What’s more, the Yankees are 21-16 straight up when playing on no rest and 27-19 straight up when playing an opponent on equal rest this year. And finally, the Bronx Bombers are 17-8 straight up as a home favorite and 29-15 straight up as a favorite in 2025. For all of those reasons, I’m taking the Yankees. The pick is New York -160 on the money line over Texas at Bovada.lv.
