Odds are the American price printed with this pick, not a current offer. Wins, losses and pushes remain on the public record; a missing grade is not a win.

The read

If you want the straight goods, this is a mismatch tailor-made for a runline play. Yarbrough’s control (1.18 WHIP, .230 BAA) will chew up an Angels lineup that’s flailing—nobody in their top five hitters above .220, and Kochanowicz’s bloated ERA (5.53) and massive WHIP (1.59) means he’s prime meat for Judge (.372, 26 HR) and this Bronx order. The Yankees’ bats are built to punish mistakes, and with LA’s starter serving up nearly .300 to hitters, I see a blowout brewing—if you’ve got the guts, ride the runline for the better payoff.
