The MLB season has reached the second month and teams are beginning to battle for positioning in their division and league. There is a full slate of games for May 8 and we will take a look at four of them. The featured game is the Brewers versus the Braves.

Milwaukee Brewers versus Atlanta Braves

The Brewers enter “burning hot” versus “ice cold up” and have a +23 to +3 advantage on the Power Ranking Indicator. The Score Predictor has the Brewers winning by the score of 6-5 with 68 percent confidence. Aaron Ashby is scheduled to pitch for the Brewers. He has a record of 0-2 with a 2.33 ERA and is a solid bet at +137 on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator. The teams have combined to play in games “over” the line in six of their last nine games combined. Go with the Brewers to win by two or three runs in a game “over” the line.

St. Louis Cardinals versus San Francisco Giants

The Giants enter play on a downward skid. They are “dead” on the Team Strength Oscillator and +3 on the Power Ranking Indicator. The Cardinals are “burning hot” and +15 on the Power Ranking Indicator. Dakota Hudson is set to pitch for the Cardinals. He comes in with a record of 2-2 with a 3.16 ERA and +22 on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator. The Score Predictor has the Cardinals in a 9-1 rout with 64 percent confidence.

The Rays have been involved in games “over” the line in five of their last six games. The Score Predictor is seeing the trend continue with a 9-5 win by Tampa Bay with 87 percent confidence. Both teams are showing stability, according to the Team Volatility Oscillator. I like the Rays to win easily in a game “over” the line.
