New York Yankees vs Chicago Cubs Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Carlos Zabala | in MLB Picks
The Yankees shut out the Cubs again by winning Game 1 2-0. In each of the Cubs' last 4 games, one of the two teams has gone without scoring a single run. Some data would seem to indicate that the Cubs could avoid a sweep at Wrigley Field, such as the fact that the Cubs have a 24-18 record in Game 3 of the Series, which is even better than 14-7 when they lose the previous game.
On Saturday, only 8 hits were connected between the two teams, the Cubs used three bullpen arms, Smyly, Miller and Armstrong, and none allowed a run.
The Yankees secured their 32nd consecutive season with a winning record in the regular season with yesterday's victory. The Yankees will go with Cole on the mound, Cole must have felt his confidence boost after a good last outing against the Rangers, where Cole pitched 6.0 innings, struck out 9 and only allowed 1 ER, the Yankees would end up winning that game 8-4. When Cole pitches, in his last 5 starts, the Yankees were always favorites with odds of at least -165 or lower.

Our New York Yankees vs Chicago Cubs Prediction
A former Yankee, Taillon will start for the Cubs in Sunday's game, and like Cole, Taillon also had an excellent last outing where he allowed no ER in 7 innings against the Pirates in one of the best starts of his 2024 season. The Cubs' pitching has performed very well inside Wrigley Field, the starters have a 3.61 ERA there while the bullpen has a 3.44 ERA and a very good 214 BAA. While the Cubs are unlikely to fail to score a run for the third time in a row, another low-run game seems likely. Our prediction for Yankees vs Cubs is: Under 9, -114 at DraftKings.
