The Yankees often are overpriced. This is another example. Unlike the A's, who were idle on Thursday, the Yankees were in action for the sixth consecutive day with all these games being played at Yankee Stadium. 

Now, though, the Yankees hit the West Coast for the first time this season. They have yet to play in the Pacific time zone. They also have never played at Sutter Park, the A's temporary home in Sacramento.

New York has excellent season-long offensive numbers. However, the Yankees' offense is less imposing with power hitting/speedster Jazz Chisholm on the injured list. 

The A's have an underrated offense with a number of young, promising hitters. They should do well facing Will Warren, who shouldn't be in New York's starting rotation. He has a 5.65 ERA and 1.53 WHIP. Warren is surrendering 1.3 home runs per nine innings, a dangerous number entering what could be the best hitting park in the American League. 

Oakland starter Osvaldo Bido has bad numbers, mainly because of one terrible start against the Rangers. Other than that, though, he's been solid giving up two or fewer earned runs in five of his other six starts. I like the A's backend of their bullpen better than the Yankees, too, given the horrific struggles of Devin Williams.
