Kansas City Royals vs. New York Yankees: Odds, Line, Picks, (Y)RFI and Predictions July 28, 2022 | 2022 MLB Season
The Kansas City Royals head to the Bronx to play the New York Yankees for four games.
Andrew Benintendi comes to town, but not with the Kansas City ball club. The Royals dealt him to New York for three prospects. It's Shakespearean for him to play his first series with his new team against his old team.
The Yankees needed a boost after a disappointing two games with the New York Mets. Benintendi was a great acquisition and could be vital to the team come playoff time.
Benny to the BX.

"Benny to the BX" - Yankees
Pitching in this one are Brady Singer for the Royals and Jameson Taillon for the Yankees.
Singer has been a bright spot in Kansas City's otherwise abysmal season. Singer has a sub-four ERA and a WHIP of 1.24. If KC doesn't trade him before the deadline, he could be a great part of their rebuilding process.
Taillon has been electric this year. He holds a 10-2 record, but even more impressive is New York's overall record in games Taillon has started, 15-4. He has been great and will be an excellent piece for New York in the postseason.

Kansas City Royals vs. New York Yankees Prediction
Just looking at this match-up, bettors know to take New York. With Taillon on the mound, it's practically a guarantee. The Yankees rarely lose three in a row. They're mad after losing two, so bettors can expect a blowout.
New York -1.5 (-120)
