The lowly Rockies pulled off the upset in the series opener of this interleague series, topping the Yankees in a surprisingly low-scoring game. How should bettors approach Rockies-Yankees on Saturday?

Grant Neiffer’s Yankees vs Rockies Preview, Prediction
[subheader sizedown=”true” center=”false” text=”Yankees Betting Preview: Target This Home Run Prop” logo1url=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/mlb/100/nyyd.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/mlb/odds/new-york-yankees” link1follow=”false”][/subheader]
I have a half-unit down on Trent Grisham to hit a home run in Saturday’s Yankees-Rockies game.
It’s not ideal with a lefty-lefty matchup against Rockies starter Kyle Freeland, who’s actually impressed this season despite his 0-6 record.
Grisham has mostly hit against right-handed pitching this season — thus, 10 of his 12 home runs have come against righties. However, Freeland has been close to a splits-neutral pitcher when it comes to power in his career.
Given that, the odds are far too high for Grisham since he’s playing at Coors Field.
Grisham has been hammering the ball this season and +500 odds is just a gift.
Pick: Trent Grisham Home Run (+500; BetMGM)
