Yankees vs. Rangers prediction: Odds, recent stats, trends, and best bets for April 28

The New York Yankees (19-10) continue their Texas road trip tonight as they take on the Rangers (14-15) in Game 2 of their series at Globe Life Field. Ben Rice (10), Aaron Judge (11), and Jazz Chisholm Jr. (3) each went yard last night to lead the Yankees to a 4-2 win over Jack Leiter and co.

Max Fried was brilliant again, allowing just four singles over six shutout innings to earn his fourth win of the season. Tonight’s contest features a stellar pitching matchup between two arms in different stages of their careers but both dominating early in the 2026 season. The Yankees will start young right-hander Cam Schlittler (3-1, 1.

77 ERA), who has allowed one earned run or less in four of his six starts, looking to stifle a Rangers’ offense that is hitting only . 216 at home. Texas counters with their veteran ace, Jacob deGrom (2-0, 2.

13 ERA), who has pitched like, well, …Jacob deGrom. Jasson Dominguez has been recalled to the big club as a result of Giancarlo Stanton being placed on the 10-day disabled list due to a right calf strain. Expect Dominguez to start as the Yankees rarely sit youngsters who have been recalled.
