The Boston Red Sox (30-35) and New York Yankees (39-23) play the second game of their 3-game series Saturday. First pitch from Yankee Stadium is set for 7:35 p.m. ET (MLB Network). Let's analyze BetMGM Sportsbook's MLB odds around the Red Sox vs. Yankees odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

According to YES Network, it’s been 103 years since the Yankees were held to four runs or fewer across a three-game series against Boston. Not since 1922 had they looked this flat in a full series against the Sox. The Yankees' four runs matched their fewest in a three-game series at Fenway Park, from June 20-22, 1916, and from Sept. 28-30, 1922.

Aaron Judge hit his 4th home run in 3 games against the Royals on Wednesday, slotting the Yankees superstar into multiple pages of the MLB history books.

In the fifth season of a six-year, $90 million contract with the Yankees, LeMahieu has struggled. After missing the beginning of the season with injury, he's returned to slash just .258/.333/.371 in 62 at-bats so far.

This comes after Yankees manager Aaron Boone had admitted trainers had told him Chisholm was only available “in an emergency” for the series finale. Boone wouldn’t commit to Chisholm starting the opener at Fenway Park after Thursday night's game, seemingly a warning for this.
