Yankees vs Orioles Prediction
The current betting odds have not been listed for this game yet. The Orioles were playing very well last week as they were on a big win streak that was snapped just before the break against the Rays. They still kept those games close though and played very well in all of them. They have been hitting the ball very well recently as their offense is heating up but their pitching has been great and they are not allowing that many runs recently either. The Yankees finished off strong before the break with 2 wins by over 10 runs each in their last 2 games. They have Montgomery starting here though and he has been slipping up in his recent starts as he has been allowing a lot of runs. He is coming off of another bad start and the Orioles have been very good at home this season, always giving the Yankees trouble in recent seasons as well. Wells is starting for them and he has been very good in his recent starts as well so he can keep this Yankees lineup at bay with how well he has been pitching. The Yankees will likely be a massive favorite here but they have only won by 1 run against the Orioles in most of their games this season, and the Orioles are playing their best all season right now. The best way to place a bet here is on the Orioles on the runline here.
Yankees Orioles Prediction: Our MLB Pick for Friday, July 22, 2022 (7:05 pm ET start time) is Yankees 6 Orioles 5.

Notable Quotes
"Great job by them. Been a little bit of a rough week obviously. To answer last night and today with two pretty emphatic victories, you want to roll into the break feeling good." - Aaron Boone after his team’s win against the Red Sox on Sunday.
"I think we're in a good spot. We're a couple games out of one of the last wild-card spots. No one would have signed us up for us. I think in spring training we would have signed up for it ourselves, but I think we're better than that. I think a lot of guys in the clubhouse after the last few weeks know we're better than that.” - Jordan Lyles after their loss against the Rays on Sunday.
