The Cleveland Guardians have upset the New York Yankees in two-straight games, and can now pull off the unlikely three-game sweep on Thursday afternoon in the Bronx.

Let's dive into the odds and my best bets for today's series finale.

Guardians vs. Yankees Best MLB Prop Bet

  • Jose Ramirez Home Run (+330)

Jose Ramirez's numbers fly off the charts when facing left-handed pitchers. His slugging percentage moves all the way up to .642 against lefties, and he has five home runs in just 79 plate appearances against them this season. He'll face a lefty this afternoon in Carlos Rodon.

Guardians vs. Yankees Prediction and Pick

Carlos Rodon getting the start for the Yankees this afternoon is bad news for New York fans hoping their team will avoid the sweep. The Guardians' lineup is one of the most dangerous in the Majors when facing left-handed pitchers. Their OPS improves from 680 against right-handed pitchers to .745 against left-handed pitchers.

Slade Cecconi getting the start for the Guardians is a bit of a concern for me, but I'm comforted by the fact that his 4.49 FIP indicates he's been pitching better than you'd think based on his 5.25 ERA.

I'm going to take a shot on the Guardians pulling off the unlikely sweep against the Yankees.
