New York Yankees Preview
The Yankees have opened the season with strong pitching, posting a 0.76 ERA and holding opponents to a .175 batting average through four games. That production on the mound has allowed New York to control game flow, particularly in low-scoring matchups where limiting baserunners has been critical. Even in their loss to Seattle, the Yankees kept the game within reach throughout.
Offensively, the Yankees are still working toward consistency. Giancarlo Stanton leads the lineup with a .500 average and eight hits, while Aaron Judge has added two home runs and three RBI. Cody Bellinger and Jose Caballero have contributed situational hitting, but the team is batting .224 overall with a .281 on-base percentage. New York has shown it can win behind pitching, but more production at the plate would create better scoring in games and take pressure off the pitching staff.
Injuries: Carlos Rodón – Out, Gerrit Cole – Out, Anthony Volpe – Out, Rafael Montero – Day-To-Day

New York Yankees vs Seattle Mariners Prediction
This matchup is close, with both teams showing strong early pitching. Seattle has the edge in offensive production and already has a win in this series, which matters in a tight matchup. Kirby’s ability to limit baserunners gives the Mariners a slight advantage over a Yankees lineup still searching for consistency. If Seattle continues to generate balanced offense, they will have enough to win another close game. Final Score Prediction: Seattle Mariners win 4-3.
