The 144-game regular season features 72 contests at 121 Financial Ballpark, including 36 home weekend games and a special home date on July 4. Similar to the 2021 campaign each series will be six-games in length with just two exceptions, and Mondays will be a league-wide designated off-day, save for Monday, July 4, and Monday, September 19.

In addition to Triple-A East Southeast Division adversaries Charlotte, Durham Bulls (Tampa Bay Rays), Gwinnett Stripers (Atlanta Braves), Memphis Redbirds (St. Louis Cardinals), Nashville Sounds (Milwaukee Brewers) and Norfolk Tides (Baltimore Orioles), the Jumbo Shrimp will face several new opponents throughout the 2022 season.

Of their divisional opponents, the Jumbo Shrimp will play 24 games apiece against both Durham and Gwinnett, with 18 contests coming against each of Charlotte, Memphis, Nashville and Norfolk. Unlike in 2021, though, no team will play more than two series at 121 Financial Ballpark.
