Yankees at Orioles picks and predictions
Prediction
Yankees 7, Orioles 4
Moneyline
Following a loss Friday, the YANKEES (-130) are who I’m taking in Saturday’s AL East showdown. New York is 46-19 in the last 65 meetings.
Run line/Against the spread
YANKEES -1.5 (+120) is the pick in this matchup with New York having a dangerous lineup against southpaws. Brito was fantastic in his debut against the Giants. So if he can limit mistakes again, the Yankees should be in a decent position to win by multiple runs.

Over/Under
OVER 9 (+100) is the lean in this game despite the high total. Irvin has shown a tendency to struggle against righty-heavy lineups, and the Orioles are capable of generating runs in a multitude of ways, especially with their ability to steal bases.
The Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Baltimore.
