Claim Your Welcome Bonus!Tampa Bay have yet to find the keys to the Yankees' defense
Kevin Cash's team managed to score only 2 points in the first two games of the division series with the New York Yankees. And despite having played good defense in the second game, they lost both times: 2-7, 0-2. The series confirms that so far the Yankees are simply stronger than Tampa Bay.
A very experienced Cory Kluber will pitch for the Rays in game three of the series, but he hasn't been doing too well this season, going 1-2 with a 4.42 ERA in eight starts.
The Yankees have once again shown their strengths
So far in the 2022 championship, the Yankees look like the ultimate team with no weaknesses. While there was no doubting the strength of Aaron Boone's team at bat in previous seasons, the Yankees are now also extremely good defensively. So in the series with Tampa Bay, New York had two quality starts – from Nestor Cortes in game one and from Jameson Taillon in game two. Both went eight complete innings. Also worth noting was a save in game two (his 6th of the season) by Clay Holmes, replacing the injured closer Aroldis Chapman.
Superstar Gerrit Cole will start on the pitcher's mound in game 3 against the Rays, 4-1, and a 3.31 ERA in nine starts.
Head-to-head encounters
The season score is at 2-0 in favor of the Yankees.
Expert Betting Tips
The New York Yankees have rarely lost a game this season, and with Gerrit Cole in the starting lineup, that's a given. Tampa Bay still have big problems in the series with the Yankees and it will not be surprising if they fail to beat the best team in the American League at the moment.
Prediction: Another win for the Yankees.
