Bet365 bonus code NYPBET: Yankees vs. Giants odds, prediction, props

The Yankees stopped their skid with a 4-3 win over the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday afternoon. A win is a win, but the Bombers will be a little concerned about their offensive struggles over the last three games.After scoring 76 runs through their first nine games, the Pinstripes tallied just six in their three-game set in MoTown.The Yanks now welcome the Giants for a three-game set in the Bronx.Take advantage of this Bet365 bonus code NYPBET and get a $150 bonus for placing a $5 bet, win or lose, on Friday’s series opener.It’s hard to look too much into the Yankees’ series with the Tigers.The weather in Detroit was so cold that the start times for each game had to be moved up to the afternoon to avoid freezing temperatures. The conditions in New York, with cold temps and rain in the forecast, aren’t hitter friendly, but they will certainly be better than what the Yanks faced in Detroit.  Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees.

The pitching matchup should also lend itself to crooked numbers.San Francisco’s Robbie Ray is 2-0 through his first two starts, and his 3.18 ERA looks good on the surface, but things aren’t pretty under the hood.Ray’s xERA sits at 7.75, his FIP is 7.04 and he’s not striking anybody out. Marcus Stroman’s numbers aren’t much better.He’s pitched to a 7.27 ERA and 5.82 xERA in 8 ⅔ innings on the season.Ray and Stroman are each averaging more than four walks per 9 innings. The Yankees were never going to continue scoring at the rate they did through the first nine games, but there were also extenuating circumstances that explain their dip in production.The Giants should also be able to contribute to this over against a struggling starting pitcher who gives up way too many free passes. The series in Detroit was a blip.
