The Yankees are coming into this game with a 24-9 record overall and they are 10-5 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They have won 6 of their last 7 games but are coming into this one off of a loss in their last game which snapped a 6 game winning streak that they were on. They just won their 2-game series against the Toronto Blue jays 2-0 completing the sweep and they are playing the series opener of a 4-game series with the Orioles on Monday. This will be the series opener of the series on Monday with the series finale of their series against the Chicago White Sox still to be played on Sunday. Nestor Cortes is the starting pitcher for them on Sunday while Luis Severino is on the mound for them here on Monday. He is 2-0 with a 4.08 ERA this season. His team won all 6 games this season with him as a starter. In his last start, he allowed 3 ER, 1 HR, and 2 BB with 8 Ks on 5 hits in 4.2 IP against the Toronto Blue Jays. They scored 11 runs in their last series averaging 5.5 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 8 runs against them averaging 4 runs allowed per game.

 

The Orioles are coming into this game with a 14-20 record overall and they are 9-7 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They have lost 3 of their last 4 games and are coming into this one on a 2 game losing streak. They just won their 3-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals 2-1 and they are playing the series opener of a 4-game series with the Yankees on Monday night. This will be the 1st game of the series on Monday with the series finale of their series against the Detroit Tigers still to be played on Sunday. Tyler Wells is the starting pitcher for them on Sunday while rookie pitcher Kyle Bradish will be on the mound for them here on Monday. He is 1-1 with a 4.24 ERA this season. His team won their last 2 straight games this season with him as a starter. In his last start, he allowed 2 earned runs, 1 homer, and 0 BB with 11 strikeouts on 4 hits in 7 innings played against the St. Louis Cardinals. They scored 9 runs in their last series averaging 3 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 15 runs against them averaging 5 runs allowed per game.

 

The Yankees are coming into this game playing very well in their recent games. They have gone on a massive winning streak to take the best record in the MLB right now and they have been hitting the ball very well while scoring a lot of runs in the process. They are going up against an Orioles team that they have already struggled against this season and the last but they swept them in their last series and will be looking to do that again here. The Orioles have been playing very well to start the season and have been much better than what was expected from them but they are still not a good team and this is a series that the Yankees should be able to sweep with how well they have been playing recently. The best bet here is on the Yankees to win this game on the runline.
