The Edge

Yankees ML is a LEAN — the team quality, pitching depth, road form, and series momentum all point clearly to New York, but the -149 price after a 5-game win streak and an unknown opposing starter introduce enough variance to keep this below PICK threshold.

Key Factors

Yankees +2.2 run differential edge over Red Sox (+1.4 vs -0.8 point diff) — meaningful team quality gap
Yankees road ATS record 7-4 (.636) vs Red Sox home ATS record 3-9 (.250) — a 38.6-point gap in cover rate
Yankees have won 5 straight and outscored Boston 8-0 in this series (Apr 21-22), covering -1.5 both games
Yankees team ERA 3.16 vs Red Sox team ERA 4.39 — a 1.23-run gap in pitching quality, with Boston missing Sonny Gray, Kutter Crawford, and Patrick Sandoval from their rotation
