As the calendar changes to May, the MLB season is in full swing. There is a complete schedule of games for May 1 with the Phillies and Mets NL East rivalry matchup the featured game.
Philadelphia Phillies versus New York Mets
In this classic NL East battle, the Phillies enter “burning hot” on the Team Strength Oscillator and +24 on the Power Ranking Indicator. The Mets are on top in the division and are “average” and +28. Zach Eflin is scheduled to pitch for the Phillies and Max Scherzer will get the ball for the Mets. Eflin is 1-1 with a 3.20 ERA and -46 on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator, while Scherzer is 3-0 with a 1.80 ERA and +167. Both teams have been trending in games “over” the line. The Mets have been far more stable, at +5 to -1 on the Team Volatility Oscillator. The Score Predictor likes the Phillies by a 9-2 score with 44 percent confidence. I like the Mets by a run, but avoid the “over/under” bet.
Chicago Cubs versus Milwaukee Brewers
In this NL Central contest, the Brewers enter “burning hot” and +20 on the Power Ranking Indicator. The Cubs are “ice cold up” on the Team Strength Oscillator and +6. Note that both teams have been trending on games “under” the line over their last six. The Score Predictor likes the Brewers by an 8-4 score with 54 percent confidence. The Cubs have been very inconsistent with respect to their favorite/underdog status. I like the Brewers at home in a game going “under” the line.
New York Yankees versus Kansas City Royals
The Yankees head to Kansas City “burning hot” on the Team Strength Oscillator and +22 on the Power Ranking Indicator. The Royals are “ice cold up” and +10, respectively. Luis Severino is scheduled to pitch for the Yankees and Daniel Lynch is set to take the ball for the Royals. Severino is 2-0 with a 3.12 ERA and +174 on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator. Lynch is 2-1 with a 3.38 EAR and has also been a good bet at +160 on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator. The Yankees have been involved in games “over” the line in four of their last five and the Score Predictor likes the Yankees in a 7-0 blowout with 65 percent confidence. I like the Yankees on the road to win and cover in a game “over” the line.
Cleveland Guardians versus Oakland Athletics
The Guardians come in “dead” on the Team Strength Oscillator and +1 on the Power Ranking Indicator. Oakland is “average” and +9, respectively. The teams have been trending nearly half their games “over” the line over the last 12 games combined. The Score Predictor has Oakland by a 6-3 score with 50 percent confidence. Neither team has named their starting pitcher. Take note that Oakland is +9 on the Team Volatility Oscillator meaning they have been very consistently performing with regard to their favorite/underdog status. Go with Oakland to win, but avoid the over/under.
Washington Nationals versus San Francisco Giants
The two teams are heading in opposite directions early in the season. Washington is “dead” and +4 on the Power Ranking Indicator, while San Francisco is “burning hot down” and +29. Both teams have been involved in games “over” the line in three of their last six. The Score Predictor likes the Giants by an 8-2 score with 83 percent confidence. There is little to indicate that the Nationals have much of a chance in this one for an upset. I like the Giants in a game “over” the line.
Atlanta Braves versus Texas Rangers
NL East meets AL West in this battle. The Braves enter “ice cold down” and +15 on the Power Ranking Indicator, while the Rangers are “average down” and +14, respectively. The teams have been trending in games “under” the line a little more frequently than “over” during the most recent six-game stretch. Note that neither team is showing much stability, according to the Team Volatility Oscillator. The Score Predictor likes Texas by a 3-2 score, but with only 31 percent confidence. I like the Braves in perhaps a bit of a road upset, in a game “under” the line.
