Seattle Mariners vs Oakland Athletics Picks and Predictions April 21st 2026

April 21, 2026 By Scores And Stats | MLB

Seattle Mariners fans hoping for the beginning of the Cole Emerson era will have to wait. With third baseman Brendan Donovan placed on the injured list Monday with a left groin strain, many in Seattle hoped it would be Emerson who got the call when the Mariners opened a three-game series at home against the Athletics. But with the 20-year-old dealing with a sore wrist at Triple-A Tacoma, infielder Will Wilson instead got promoted from the Rainiers. “It just didn’t feel like this was the right time for that,” Mariners manager Dan Wilson said of promoting Emerson. Dan Wilson said Donovan’s injury likely is related to the sports hernia on which the veteran had offseason surgery. “This is just something

Detroit Tigers vs Milwaukee Brewers Picks and Predictions April 21st 2026

April 21, 2026 By Scores And Stats | MLB

Milwaukee opens this interleague series at Comerica Park on Tuesday night at 12-9, fifth in the NL Central, after Sunday’s 5-3 loss in Miami snapped a four-game winning streak. Detroit is 12-11, second in the AL Central, and although the Tigers dropped Monday’s Patriots’ Day game in Boston 8-6, they return home where they are 8-1 so far. First pitch is set for 6:40 p.m. ET, with Kyle Harrison starting for the Brewers and Keider Montero going for Detroit. The game is listed on Brewers.TV and Detroit SportsNet. The weather looks manageable, not defining. Detroit is expected to sit in the 60s to low 70s around game time with a chance of evening showers and some breeze, but nothing here

Washington Nationals vs Atlanta Braves Picks and Predictions April 21st 2026

April 21, 2026 By Scores And Stats | MLB

Atlanta comes into Tuesday night at 16-7, first in the NL East, and riding a six-game winning streak after Monday’s 9-4 win in Washington. The Nationals are 10-13, third in the division, and just 2-8 at home, so this is already starting to feel like a tough spot for them even before you get to the pitching matchup. First pitch is set for 6:45 p.m. ET at Nationals Park, with Reynaldo López facing Foster Griffin. The weather should stay pretty quiet. Washington is expected to sit in the low 60s around first pitch with mostly clear skies and only a light breeze, so this does not look like one of those games where the forecast overwhelms the baseball handicap. That

Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees Picks and Predictions April 21st 2026

April 21, 2026 By Scores And Stats | MLB

The Yankees open their first 2026 series against Boston on Tuesday night at Fenway Park, carrying a 13-9 record, first place in the AL East, and a three-game winning streak after sweeping Kansas City. Boston comes in at 9-13, fourth in the division, but the Red Sox did just close their Detroit series with an 8-6 win on Monday. First pitch is set for 6:45 p.m. ET, with Luis Gil starting for New York and Connelly Early getting the ball for Boston. TV coverage is listed on TBS, YES, and NESN+, and the market has this game priced close to a coin flip. Fenway weather looks cool and a little damp, but not extreme enough to completely hijack the handicap.

New York Mets vs Minnesota Twins Picks and Predictions April 21st 2026

April 21, 2026 By Scores And Stats | MLB

The Twins open this interleague set at Citi Field on Tuesday night with an 11-11 record and a four-game losing streak after getting swept at home by Cincinnati. The Mets are in even worse shape at 7-15, last in the NL East, and have dropped 11 straight, their longest skid since 2004. First pitch is set for 7:10 p.m. ET, and the listed TV coverage is Twins.TV Presented by Progressive and SNY. One important update from your original setup: Minnesota is not sending Mick Abel. He went on the 15-day injured list Monday with right elbow inflammation, so Simeon Woods Richardson gets the start opposite Nolan McLean. The weather should stay fairly quiet, with temperatures in the upper 40s, light
