The red hot Guardians had their flame extinguished on Friday night in Milwaukee, losing the series opener 5-3 to the Brewers. Cleveland had won five in a row prior -which followed seven consecutive losses – so is this streaky team about ready for another downturn? The Brewers have now won three in a row and […]
Every game counts for the Royals right now, as they are trying to fend off the likes of the Red Sox and Mariners for the final wild card spot in the AL. KC defended their spot well on Friday night, winning the series opener in Cincinnati 7-1. The Reds had won four in a row […]
The Braves started the month 2-6, but they’re turning things around a bit going 4-2 since. Atlanta (64-57) won’t catch Philadelphia in the division, but they are currently holding on to the final wild card spot in the NL. The Angels (52-69) are once again just waiting for a nightmare season to end, and they’re […]
Will offense be on tap at hitter friendly Coors Field on Friday when the Padres meet the Rockies to kick off a 3-game weekend set? Colorado (44-78) just got swept at Arizona, but all three games of their last home series against Atlanta went over the 10.5 total. San Diego (69-53) can get some runners […]
The Orioles and Yankees look like they’ll be in a dog fight for the top of the AL East the rest of the Summer. Baltimore (71-50) is currently 1/2 a game back from New York and although Boston is 7.5 games back from the division leaders, they are 2 GB from the second wild card […]
The Twins (67-63) currently sit in the #2 wild card in the American League, so they need to fully take advantage of a 4-game series against the slumping Rangers (56-65) that gets underway in Arlington on Thursday night. Texas did get a 9-7 comeback win in Boston on Wednesday, but that puts their mark to […]
The “bad boys of baseball” are rolling as Houston (64-55) has put together a 7-game win streak. Normally that stretch would give a team some padding atop their division, but these games are still very important for the Astros as they have just a 1.5 game lead over the Mariners in the AL West. Tampa […]
Barring a massive meltdown by the Brewers, neither St. Louis nor Cincinnati are going to catch Milwaukee in the NL Central over the last month-and-a-half of the 2024 season. The two clubs are still battling for second place in the division though, and the Reds (59-61) have made some nice headway by winning the first […]
Offshore oddsmakers have Tuesday night’s Braves vs Giants matchup basically a coin flip, which would automatically give a lean towards home team San Francisco (61-60).

The Blue Jays (54-64) had a disappointing 3-3 home stand last week, but that’s been the theme of their season for a talented team that is 11 GB in the wild card race making their year essentially over. Toronto did tally a 4-2 win over the Angels (52-66) in Monday’s series opener in Anaheim, but […]
