Key Storylines
Pitching matchup
Carlos Rodón has been one of New York’s more reliable starters this season. He enters with a 16-9 record and a 3.11 ERA. His strikeout rate remains strong while limiting home runs more than in recent years. He has shown an ability to go deep into games and give the Yankees a chance to win each time out. Tomoyuki Sugano has a 10-8 record and a 4.39 ERA. He has had moments of solid control but has been hit hard in bursts and given up more home runs than Rodón.
Recent team streaks
- The Yankees had a three-game winning streak snapped with their loss to the Orioles on Friday night.
- The Orioles have won four of their last five games after winning on Friday night behind a strong start from Trevor Rogers.

Yankees vs Orioles Model Projection
- Score Projection: Yankees 5 – Orioles 2
- Win Probability: Yankees 65%, Orioles 35%
Final Thoughts
Everything points toward a Yankees win here. Rodón gives them a strong chance to bounce back from Friday’s game where the Yankees were overmatched against Rogers. While Sugano can keep things close early, home runs from Judge, Bellinger, or Stanton will likely swing this game in New York’s favor. Betting the Yankees −1.5 looks like good value heading into this division matchup.
