Yankees at Rays 9/26/18 - MLB Picks & Predictions

The Yankees and the Rays are facing off in this game. However, the Rays are a team that is able to pull off the upsets at any point in time. The best news for the Yankees, though, is the fact the Yankees have already made the playoffs and should be able to get some momentum that can help them in getting to pull off the win here and keep it going to the playoffs.

On the season the Yankees have been able to score a total of 802 runs, but are hitting at a clip of .248. The Yankees have been able to get a staff ERA of 3.76 on the season so far.

With the Rays the team is coming into the game with a total of 686 runs scored on the year. The Rays have been able to hit at an average of .259. However, a problem for the Rays has been the pitching which has a team ERA of 3.63 which is really good, but the lack of run support has cost the team. When the Yankees do take to the field they are going to send out Masahiro Tanaka who has thrown a total of 152 innings a game, but has struck out 155 batters on the year. Tanaka has managed to get a 12-5 record with a 3.67 ERA on the year.

With the Rays they are still trying to figure out who to send to the mound in this game. The Rays are going to have to make a game time decision, but the starters for the Rays have been throwing really well and it should give the Rays a chance to pick up a win.

The Yankees are playing some great baseball and have a very powerful offense and that is definitely going to help them in picking up the win here over the Rays. However, the Rays are a team that will contain the offense just a little bit with the great staff, but not contain them enough. Final Score Prediction, New York Yankees win 4-2.
