Tampa Bay Rays vs New York Yankees Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 05/24/26

The Rays and Yankees were rained out on Saturday, so what was supposed to be a 3-game weekend series in the Bronx has turned into a 2-game series thanks to the makeup game being scheduled for September 22. Sunday’s matinee pits Drew Rasmussen against Ryan Weathers as the Yankees look to snap their 3-game losing skid. Meanwhile, the Rays aren’t familiar with losing streaks anymore, as haven’t had one in over a month at this point. 

Honestly, New York’s Sunday weather forecast does not look all that promising, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see this game postponed as well. However, if they try to get this game in and you want some action on this AL East matchup, I’d recommend the Rays money line. It’s not my most confident lean of Sunday, but it’s hard to ignore the hottest team in baseball when they are listed at plus odds. Not to mention, Rasmussen has been great against this Yankees lineup in his career, holding them to just 10 hits in 89 at-bats with 36 strikeouts. 

Rays vs Yankees prediction: Tampa Bay Rays ML (+120) at the time of publishing. Playable to +110.
