Yankees vs. Tigers Prediction, Winner Payout, Over/Under – Wednesday, June 24

The Yankees sit atop the AL East, thanks in large part to their +111 run differential. The Tigers have disappointed at 34-45, but their run differential isn’t awful at -4. To put that into perspective, the White Sox lead the AL Central with a 41-37 record, yet their run differential is -2.

Five total teams in baseball (White Sox, Guardians, Phillies, Padres, Diamondbacks) have a winning record despite a negative run differential.

The Yankees have thrived at the plate, with their lineup posting the second-highest wRC+ (114) in baseball, per FanGraphs. The Tigers only have a 97 wRC+, but New York's advantage could be negated with Skubal on the mound for Detroit.

The two-time AL Cy Young award winner has a career 3.32 xERA and 1.03 WHIP.
