Yankees Game Today: Yankees vs Marlins Odds, Pitching Matchup, Starting Lineup, Predictions, Live Stream and TV Channel for Saturday

The new-look New York Yankees unveiled a brand new lineup that includes Joey Gallo in the outfield and Anthony Rizzo at first base. Rizzo has already assimilated into the Yankees’ culture, smashing two home runs in his first two games against Derek Jeter, Don Mattingly, and the Miami Marlins.

While GM Kim Ng and the Marlins were able to get some desirable assets like Jesus Luzardo in exchange for a rental in Starling Marte, the Marlins are clearly in a selling mood, and the Yankees are ready to take advantage.

The Yankees are looking for the sweep in Miami, as some timely Rizzo jacks and clutch pitching from a bullpen that has been under fire over the last few weeks have helped save New York.

Will the Yankees put their foot down and end up sweeping the Marlins, or will they flounder once again and leave Miami on the wrong foot following some more substandard performances?

Yankees vs Marlins Pitching Matchup

The Yankees will throw Jordan Montgomery (4-5, 3.78) out on the hill today. For all of the issues that the Yankees have had with starting pitching this year, Montgomery has been one of the bright spots, as his 115 ERA+ in a year where he has pitched the second-most innings of his career stands out as superb numbers

The Marlins will start former All-Star Sandy Alcantara and his 100 mile per hour fastball. Right-handed hitters in the Yankee lineup might have difficulty squaring up his fastball and slider combination.

Yankees vs Marlins Prediction Today

The Yankees have had a problem keeping momentum this year, as two close wins have traditionally been followed by a blowout loss that completely sucks all of the positivity out of proceedings.

However, this team has received a big shot in the arm with the acquisition of Rizzo, and despite the fact that the Yankees are still leaning on that all-or-nothing approach at the plate, they should be able to come out on top, especially with Miami’s pitching woes.

Yankees 5, Marlins 2.
