MLB Picks May 1: Braves at Mets Featured Game

The MLB season is a month in and teams are beginning to get a feel if they have what it takes to contend this season. Seven games are scheduled for May 1 with the Mets hosting the Braves as the headlined match-up.

Atlanta Braves versus New York Mets

The Braves enter 3-3 over their last six and are “average down” on the Team Strength Oscillator, while the Mets are 2-4 and “ice cold up” during the same stretch. Atlanta has a +24 to +5 edge on the Power Ranks Indicator. The teams have been trending in games on opposite sides of the “over/under” line and the Score Predictor likes Atlanta by a 5-0 score with 52 percent confidence. The Team Volatility Oscillator shows Atlanta at +8 to +4 for the Mets, indicating the team is very consistent with regard to their favorite/underdog status. Bryce Elder is scheduled to pitch for the Braves. He is a good bet at +208 on the Pitcher Profit Oscillator. I like the Braves in a game “under” the line.

Chicago Cubs versus Washington Nationals

Chicago is 3-3 over their last six and the Nationals are 4-2 over their last six. Both teams are “average” on the Team Strength Oscillator and Washington is +22 to +8 on the Power Ranks Indicator. The teams have been trending on opposite sides of the “over/under” line and the Score Predictor likes the Cubs by a 6-1 score but with only 4 percent confidence. Washington has been much more consistent with regard to their favorite/underdog status. Neither team has named its starting pitcher at this time. I like the Cubs but will pass on the over/under bet.

Cleveland Guardians versus New York Yankees

The Yankees come in 3-3 over their last six but have won their last two. They are “burning hot” versus “ice cold up” on the Team Strength Oscillator and +17 to +1 on the Power Ranks Indicator. The teams have been trending in games “under” the line and the Score Predictor likes the Yankees by a 7-4 score with 33 percent confidence. Neither team has named its starting pitcher. Cleveland is -3 on the Team Volatility Oscillator, indicating they have been very inconsistent with regard to their favorite/underdog status. I like the Yankees but will pass on the over/under bet.

Toronto Blue Jays versus Boston Red Sox 

Toronto has won their last five and enter the contest “burning hot” on the Team Strength Oscillator. Boston is “average” down after going 3-3 over their last six. The Blue Jays have a +28 to +24 edge on the Power Ranks Indicator. They have been involved in games “under” the line in each of their last six, and the Red Sox have been in games “over” the line in each of their last six. The Score Predictor has Toronto by a 6-4 score with 78 percent confidence. This is the first meeting between the teams this season. Toronto has been more consistent with regard to their favorite/underdog status. I like the Blue Jays in a game “over” the line.

San Francisco Giants versus Houston Astros

Both teams have won five of their last six games. The Astros are “burning hot” versus “burning hot down” and the Giants are +28 to +26 on the Power Ranks Indicator. The teams have been involved in games “over” the line in eight of their last 12 combined and the Score Predictor likes Houston by a 7-5 score with 71 percent confidence. Surprisingly both teams have been unstable, and negative on the Team Volatility Oscillator. The starting pitchers have not yet been named for this game. I like Houston at home but will pass on the “over/under” bet.

Philadelphia Phillies versus Los Angeles Dodgers

After a rough start, the Phillies are 5-1 over their last six games. They are “burning hot” versus “average down” for the Dodgers, who are 3-3 over their last six. The teams have been involved in games “over” the line in nine of their last 12 combined and the Score Predictor likes the Phillies by an 8-3 score with 62 percent confidence. Los Angeles has been very unstable at -1 on the Team Volatility Oscillator. The starting pitchers have not been named yet for this game. I like Philadelphia in a game “over” the line.
