New York Yankees vs Kansas City Royals Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Bill Christy in MLB Picks
The 48-21 New York Yankees have gone 9-2 this month and have a chance to pick up a 4-game sweep of the Royals Thursday afternoon. Through the 1st 3 games of this series, the Yankees have won by an average margin of 5.6 runs per game. Judge sat out the last game but has gone 3-9 with a homer and 3 RBIs so far this series. Stanton has been just as good, playing in 2 of the 3 games and going 4-9 with 2 homers and 4 RBIs. The Royals (39-29) were 4-3 before running into the Yankees this month. Bobby Witt has been doing all he can with 3 doubles and going 6-13 so far this series. Nestor Cortes (3-5, 3.68) will try to shake off his 5th loss which came in his last start. He allowed 4 earned on 7 hits against the Dodgers and was handed the loss. Alec Marsh (5-3, 4.05) will go for the Royals in hopes of avoiding the sweep. He picked up his 5th win in his last start despite not pitching great. He allowed 4 earned on 7 hits in just 5 innings of work. He did strikeout 8 batters while not allowing a walk. He will have his hands full against this extremely potent Yankees lineup.

Our New York Yankees vs Kansas City Royals Prediction
The Yankees have the best record in baseball and now have a chance to pick up a 4-game sweep while extending their road win streak to 9 games. Cortes was not throwing his best stuff in his last start but the lineup should be able to do enough against Marsh here to give the Yankees another one in the win column. Look for Judge and Stanton to continue their hot power hitting in this final game of the series.
