Rockies vs Yankees Pick, Betting Analysis
Editor's Note: This is a transcript from the recent Payoff Pitch episode.
Yankees' ace Cam Schlittler takes the mound tonight against the Rockies. And while Schlittler is a clear Cy Young candidate, we're seeing a lot of value in Hunter Goodman to go deep for the Rockies.
There's not a whole lot of analysis needed here, because Goodman is one of the home run leaders in the majors this year.
As good as Schlittler has been, he's allowed 15 homers this year and can be a little bit susceptible to the long ball when the conditions are right.
There's not going to be a lot of opportunities to get Goodman at a price like +390, so we're going to ride with him.
Pick: Hunter Goodman 1+ Home Run (+390, FanDuel)
