New York Yankees vs Detroit Tigers 4/21/2022 Picks Predictions Previews
The New York Yankees will go against the Detroit Tigers in MLB action in Comerica Park, MI, on Thursday, April 21, 2022, at 1:10 PM ET. In the initial stages of the 2022 season, New York faltered with consistency.
The Yankees dominated their first two matches versus Boston this season before dropping three of their next four. They won two of three games against American League East opponent Toronto but lost a stunning series to Baltimore last weekend.
On Tuesday, New York came back with a 4-2 victory at Detroit. The Yankees will start a six-game homestand on Friday, capping up a six-game road trip. So far this season, they did not live up to expectations at the plate, ranking 19th in team batting average (.224).
The Yankees’ lineup, anchored by designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton and right fielder Aaron Judge, is one of the most skilled, expensive—in the majors.
Stanton tops the team in hits with 11, while Judge, Aaron Hicks, and DJ LeMahieu each have ten. They’ll be up against a Detroit pitching staff that ranks 14th in the MLB with a 3.54 ERA. Jordan Montgomery, a left-handed pitcher, will start for the Yankees on Thursday.
- The total went UNDER in 5 of the NY Yankees’ previous 6 matches.
- The NY Yankees are 4-2 SU in their last 6 matches.
- New York is 7-3 SU in their last 10 matches against Detroit.

New York Yankees vs Detroit Tigers Predictions 4/21/2022
This season, Detroit is unpredictable as well. The Tigers went on three consecutive two-game losing streaks, the most recent of which they brought into Wednesday’s game against the New York Yankees. They are presently on a six-game homestand, which will conclude this weekend with a series against Colorado.
This season, the Tigers struggled offensively, ranking 27th in team batting average (.196). The Tigers are severely weak in power, ranking second-to-last in home runs (6), trailing only the Baltimore Orioles. Their plate discipline improved slightly, as they rank in the middle of MLB in walks (40).
So far, left fielder Austin Meadows was the team’s best hitter, with 10 hits and a .370 batting average in his first eight games. Miguel Cabrera, the veteran first baseman, has 9 hits and is batting. 281. They’ll be up against a New York pitching staff that entered Wednesday’s games with the third-best team ERA (2.48) in the league.
Due to a number of ailments in its starting pitching rotation, Detroit is yet to name its starter for Thursday’s match.
- The total went UNDER in 4 of Detroit’s previous 5 matches.
- The Detroit Tigers are 2-5 SU in their previous 7 matches.
- The total went UNDER in 5 of Detroit’s last 6 matches against the NY Yankees.
New York Yankees vs Detroit Tigers. The MLB pick for this game is the New York Yankees. Going into the last game of this series, I’m not optimistic about Detroit’s pitching situation.
The Tigers are planning to employ many bullpen arms on Wednesday night, leaving them depleted entering into a ballgame that will take place less than 15 hours later.
Pineda appeared to be Detroit’s best starting pitcher, but his recovery in the minors was cut short by one start. He’s definitely out of shape right now, which doesn’t bode well against a lineup that includes Stanton, Judge, and others.
Early in the match, New York should be able to tack on a few runs, providing Montgomery plenty of cushion. The NY Yankees will win to a predicted score of 5-3.
