Houston Astros vs Los Angeles Angels Picks and Predictions August 29th 2025
The Los Angeles Angels stagger into Minute Maid Park on Friday night hoping to recover from a 20-3 humiliation against the Texas Rangers, the latest blow in a string of losses that now stretches to nine defeats in twelve games. Their confidence has been shaken, their pitching exhausted, and their star, Mike Trout, mired in a career-worst slump amid injury concerns. And now they face the American League West–leading Houston Astros, whose lineup just got a fresh injection of power in the form of a resurgent Christian Walker. Houston enters the four-game series on a much more encouraging trajectory. They edged out the Colorado Rockies 4-3 on Thursday, thanks to a pair of home runs from Walker, including a go-ahead

Colorado Rockies vs Chicago Cubs Picks and Predictions August 29th 2025
With only a month remaining in the 2025 MLB regular season, the Chicago Cubs stand at a pivotal crossroads. Trailing the Milwaukee Brewers by six and a half games in the National League Central, the Cubs enter their weekend series against the Colorado Rockies knowing that every inning now holds playoff consequences. Friday night at Coors Field marks the beginning of a favorable stretch—18 consecutive games against sub-.500 opponents—and if the Cubs are to mount a serious division challenge, that push must begin now. Coming off a gutting three-game sweep at the hands of the San Francisco Giants, Chicago needs momentum, consistency, and contributions across the board to reassert itself in the postseason conversation. The Cubs arrive in Denver still

Los Angeles Dodgers vs Arizona Diamondbacks Picks and Predictions August 29th 2025
The Los Angeles Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks were expected to be battling neck-and-neck for the National League West crown heading into September. Instead, the Los Angeles Dodgers have widened the gap with consistency, while the Arizona Diamondbacks find themselves scrambling to remain in the wild-card picture. Friday night’s series opener at Dodger Stadium begins a three-game set that still carries playoff implications, even if the rivalry has lost some of the division-race edge it once promised. The Dodgers enter with the best rotation health they’ve had all season, riding a four-game winning streak, while the Diamondbacks arrive having won six of their last nine and showing life despite being labeled as sellers at the trade deadline.

San Francisco Giants vs Baltimore Orioles Picks and Predictions August 29th 2025
The San Francisco Giants enter Friday’s interleague showdown against the Baltimore Orioles with momentum firmly on their side, powered by a trio of hitters who have quickly become the backbone of their offense. Former American League stars Rafael Devers, Willy Adames, and Matt Chapman have not only stabilized San Francisco’s lineup but helped launch a five-game winning streak that has altered the club’s outlook heading into the stretch run. The visiting Orioles, meanwhile, stagger into Oracle Park on the heels of a disastrous 1-7 homestand that saw their postseason hopes dim further. They arrive in the Bay Area looking for a reset, but the task is far from easy as they square off against one of the National League’s hottest

Cleveland Guardians vs Seattle Mariners Picks and Predictions August 29th 2025
The Cleveland Guardians enter a critical three-game series against the Seattle Mariners Friday night at Progressive Field with their playoff hopes hanging by a thread. Seattle holds the final AL Wild Card spot, sitting five games ahead of Cleveland. Friday’s opener features Logan Allen (7-10, 4.35 ERA) against George Kirby (8-6, 4.05 ERA) in a matchup that could set the tone for both clubs’ September push. For recent performances and streaks, check the latest MLB game results. Their young lineup provides run support and Allen rebounds from his rough outing. The lefty was shelled for nine runs in Texas last Saturday, but historically he’s fared well against Seattle (2-0, 2.13 ERA in two career starts). Kyle Manzardo and Nolan Jones
