Reds vs Yankees

Nicholas Martin previews Wednesday's MLB game between the Reds and Yankees, including betting odds and a prediction.

I see far more value with this as opposed to the Yankees giving -1.5 runs on the spread at -160, which I’m sure will also be a popular play on this contest. Plus, we know even the worst teams will have stretches like this where batted balls just seem to get down at the right times. New York has also hit to excellent numbers against the fastball and slider in particular, with a combined run value of 54.6, and should see those pitches more than 70% of the time with Minor on the mound. And even should the Reds manage to continue this surprising recent run of results with a strong output against Severino, it might not mean finding a result with Minor on the mound. Throughout the campaign, the Reds has been the league’s fourth least productive unit against right-handed pitching as well, with a wRC+ of 84 and a strikeout rate of 24.2 percent. Cincinnati has still hit to a fifth worst wRC+ of 87 over the last 30 days, with a WOBA of .301 this season.

We go over how to watch Wednesday's game between the Cincinnati Reds and New York Yankees and make some picks.

The Yankees slugger has hit two home runs this week already and has four in his career off Minor, so this prop looks really good. Despite the good vibes coming out of the visitor's dugout, Minor has struggled a lot this season with an ERA above 6.00. He’s earned just one win in his last seven starts and has given up 28 earned runs in his last 38 innings pitched. This is really the logical play here despite how the two teams are trending. After sweeping the Tampa Bay Rays over the weekend, Cincy kept the good times rolling with a win in the series opener in the Bronx. Overall they’ve won five straight and are no longer the laughing stock of baseball like they were earlier in the season. Plus Severino has been quite good this season, giving up just 15 earned runs in his last 42 innings pitched. The Cincinnati Reds and New York Yankees square off on Wednesday with first pitch set for 7:05 p.m. EST. The game takes place at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx and will only be available on local TV or through an MLB.tv subscription.

The Cincinnati Reds and Jonathan India rallied from a three-run deficit to stun the Yankees in a 4-3 win on Tuesday.

The Reds are on a five-game winning streak, their longest of the season. The Reds had four walk-off wins last week and followed it with an astonishing comeback. I just heard Farmer saying, ‘three, three.’ I said I’m just going to wing it as hard as I can, I don’t care if it goes in the stands." As much as India helped win the game with his bat, his arm likely saved a run in the seventh inning. The Reds finally were back to full strength with their lineup, an extremely rare occurrence this year. India fielded the ball behind second base and made an underhand flip to shortstop Kyle Farmer, who did a pirouette before firing to first base. "There is not a tougher at-bat," said Reds Manager David Bell, who overheard several players saying it was their favorite win of the season. Torres looked in disbelief from the dirt when the umpire signaled he was out. There was Jonathan India fouling changeup after changeup with the Reds down to their final strike and the tying run at third base. Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson said India's go-ahead hit gave him flashbacks to the team's series in San Diego last year. Peralta induced a pair of groundballs and they both turned into outs at the plate. Yankees closer Clay Holmes entered with a 0.46 ERA, but he didn't record an out against the five batters he faced.
