JD Bets prefers betting the Yankees moneyline against the Pirates, citing Will Warren's promising debut performance against Arizona, allowing just one hit over five innings. Additionally, he notes the Yankees' offense is sizzling after scoring 10 runs the day before. By comparison, Pirates starter Andrew Heaney's solid outing came against Miami, a weak-hitting lineup according to JD. Therefore, JD sees the clear offensive and pitching advantage favoring New York, recommending a moneyline wager.

Eric Lindquist pointed out concerns involving Yankees pitcher Will Warren, whose underlying metrics last season revealed troubling signs despite his strong strikeout capabilities. Warren showed a very high 50.7% hard-hit rate along with a 427 expected slugging percentage and a 327 expected weighted on-base average (xWOBA). Given these issues, Lindquist suggested the Diamondbacks versus Yankees total over 8.5 runs as a good play, particularly considering favorable weather conditions—winds blowing out at approximately 9-10 mph to the short porch in Yankee Stadium.

Kyle Purviance noted an intriguing opportunity to fade Yankees pitcher Will Warren, who is making his MLB debut against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Despite a line that recently moved slightly toward the Yankees at minus 105, Purviance pointed out that Warren, as a rookie debutante, could struggle facing veteran Corbin Burnes and a Diamondbacks roster. With the price already moving from around minus 120 to minus 115 in favor of Diamondbacks, Purviance plans to wait until morning to see if an even better value emerges, suggesting greater potential value backing Arizona against an untested pitcher making his first career appearance.
