Los Angeles Angels vs New York Yankees Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 04/13/26

The Los Angeles Angels will look to keep their offense rolling as they head to the Bronx to take on the New York Yankees. The Angels are coming off a series win against the Reds, while the Yankees were just swept by the Rays and now have lost six of their last seven games. Taking the mound for the Angels will be left-handed Yusei Kikuchi who enters with a 0-2 record and a 6.75 ERA. For the Yankees, Will Warren will get the nod who is 1-0 with a 3.07 ERA. 

Offensively, the Yankees have struggled over the last week, hitting just .172 as a team and averaging three runs per game in their last six. As for the Angels, they’re hitting slightly better, batting .219 and averaging 5.3 runs per game. There’s no denying that the Yankees have struggled offensively this season, and it’s not going to get any better until they make some significant changes with their lineup. However, Kikuchi has struggled on the mound this season, and he could be vulnerable against the heart of the Yankees order featuring Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger, Ben Rice, and Giancarolo Stanton. Still, this is a steep line for the Yankees given their recent struggles, and the Yankees are batting .113 against lefties this season, which is the worst in the majors. Taking everything into consideration, I think the Angels are more than capable of keeping this game close, even with Kikuchi on the mound.
