New York sends out Nestor Cortes for Thursday's game, who is 7-3 with a 2.74 ERA. Cortes was selected to his first All-Star Game a few days ago and definitely has the numbers to justify this selection. Lately, he's been hit around a bit, but in his last three home starts, he's pitching to a 2.20 ERA.
The Reds' offense ranks around league average when it comes to runs per game, but they have enjoyed success at Yankee Stadium in the first two games of this series. Look for Cortes to have a strong outing after a shaky start against the Boston Red Sox his last time out.
Luis Castillo, who is 3-4 with a 2.92 ERA, will be on the hill Thursday for Cincinnati. Castillo has seen his name pop up in trade rumors recently. He's been showcased nicely as he's put together three solid outings in a row. In these starts, he's allowed just two runs in 20 innings pitched.

The Yankees lineup that Castillo will be facing is one of the best in the majors. The Reds' righty will have to be on top of his game in the series finale.

New York Yankees vs. Cincinnati Reds Best Picks
Aaron Judge is the current frontrunner for American League MVP, despite the fact he's cooled off a bit over the past couple of weeks. Expect him to have a big game in the final game of this series. He'll be at home, where he's always been more comfortable.
Pick: Aaron Judge Over 1.5 Total Bases (-105)
New York Yankees vs. Cincinnati Reds Betting Prediction
The Yankees and Reds have played two one-run ballgames to open this series. That's very impressive for a Cincinnati club that has been terrible on the road in 2022. Look for the home side to cover on Thursday, and expect a lower-scoring affair with two solid pitchers squaring off.
Prediction: New York Yankees -1.5 (+104) & Total Under 8.5 (-138)
