Detroit Tigers vs Texas Rangers Picks and Predictions May 1st 2026
All things considered, Texas Rangers manager Skip Schumaker appears pleased with his team's performance heading into May. The Rangers are 15-16 as they begin a three-game series against the host Detroit Tigers on Friday. Texas snapped a three-game losing streak and concluded its nine-game homestand with a 3-0 win over the New York Yankees on Wednesday. Detroit beat the host Atlanta Braves 5-2 on Thursday to avoid a three-game sweep. Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford missed the past eight games with a strained right forearm, but Schumaker said he could return as soon as this weekend. Even with Langford sidelined and star shortstop Corey Seager off to a slow start, Schumaker believes his team is trending in the right direction. "I

New York Yankees vs Baltimore Orioles Picks and Predictions May 1st 2026
In every season of his career, Pete Alonso's lone visit to Yankee Stadium occurred for the New York Mets in the "Subway Series." After not being offered a contract by the Mets in the offseason, Alonso will make multiple trips to the Bronx for the first time in his career starting Friday night when the Baltimore Orioles visit the New York Yankees for the opener of a four-game series. Since debuting with a 53-homer season in 2019, Alonso played 19 games for the Mets at Yankee Stadium and batted .225 with seven homers, 19 RBIs and an .835 OPS. After passing Darryl Strawberry as the Mets' all-time home run leader, Alonso left the club and joined the Orioles on a

Washington Nationals vs Milwaukee Brewers Picks and Predictions May 1st 2026
The Washington Nationals will try to find an answer for Jacob Misiorowski when they open a three-game series against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night. Misiorowski (1-2, 3.31 ERA) will oppose Milwaukee right-hander Jake Irvin (1-3, 4.85) in the series opener. The Brewers right-hander has allowed three earned runs or fewer in each of his six starts, but the team is 2-4 in those games. He has 51 strikeouts and 13 walks in 32 2/3 innings. Last time out, Misiorowski allowed three runs on three hits over six innings in a no-decision against the Pittsburgh Pirates. He struck out nine and walked one in a game the Brewers lost 6-3 in 10 innings. Misiorowski struck out leadoff batter Oneil

Pittsburgh Pirates vs Cincinnati Reds Picks and Predictions May 1st 2026
The Cincinnati Reds begin May atop the National League Central standings, having won five consecutive series heading into a seven-game road trip that begins Friday night in Pittsburgh. Cincinnati's 20-11 record is the team's best 31-game start since 2006 and also marks the first time in franchise history that the Reds won 20 games in a season before May 1. Cincinnati has lost just two series all season but one of them was to the Pirates from March 30-April 1. Brady Singer (2-1, 4.97 ERA), who picked up wins in two of his past three starts, will pitch the series opener for the Reds. He will be opposed by fellow right-hander Mitch Keller (2-1, 3.18). Singer is 2-4 with a

Chicago Cubs vs Arizona Diamondbacks Picks and Predictions May 1st 2026
Zac Gallen will start the opening contest of the Arizona Diamondbacks' three-game series against the Chicago Cubs on Friday afternoon with a purple, baseball-seamed bruise on his right shoulder after being struck by a line drive in his latest start. The Diamondbacks as a whole can relate. The D-backs are in their roughest stretch of the season as they head to Chicago to conclude a six-game Midwestern road trip. Arizona was outscored 28-9 while losing two of three games in Milwaukee to start the week, and the Diamondbacks have lost six of their past nine overall. They dropped 13-2 and 13-1 blowouts on either side of a 6-2 win over the Brewers. "The two games we lost here, we have
