Arizona Diamondbacks vs Toronto Blue Jays Picks and Predictions April 18th 2026
Max Scherzer’s off-day preparation includes time on the piano. Don’t knock it until you try it. Scherzer (1-2, 9.58 ERA) will get the ball on Saturday for the Toronto Blue Jays against Zac Gallen (1-1, 3.60) of the Arizona Diamondbacks. The veteran right-handers will meet Saturday in Phoenix in the second game of a three-game set. A three-time Cy Young Award winner, Scherzer found a keyboard in a room near the Blue Jays clubhouse on Friday and started tapping out Van Halen’s “Right Now.” He has credited the dexterity required to play the piano with extending his career by helping to relieve the discomfort of a troublesome right thumb injury. “When you’re playing different keys and notes and chords, your

Colorado Rockies vs Los Angeles Dodgers Picks and Predictions April 18th 2026
The weekend didn’t start well for the Colorado Rockies, but they will have three more chances against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Los Angeles recorded a 7-1 win in the opener of a four-game series in Denver on Friday night. The Dodgers have won four games in a row and 11 of their last 13 heading into a rematch on Saturday evening. Emmet Sheehan (2-0, 6.60 ERA) will be on the mound for Los Angeles against fellow right-hander Ryan Feltner (1-1, 7.30) of Colorado. It won’t be easy against Sheehan, who has pitched well against the Rockies in his brief career. Sheehan is 4-0 with a 3.75 ERA in four starts against them and is not afraid to pitch at altitude.

Los Angeles Angels vs San Diego Padres Picks and Predictions April 18th 2026
Veteran right-hander German Marquez will vie to win his third consecutive start on Saturday night when his San Diego Padres try to even their three-game series against an “emotional” Los Angeles Angels team in Anaheim, Calif. Marquez (2-1, 5.54 ERA) enters off of back-to-back wins over the Pittsburgh Pirates and Colorado Rockies, allowing a total of four runs on 10 hits over 10 innings while striking out nine. Left-hander Yusei Kikuchi (0-2, 7.50 ERA) will take the mound for Los Angeles and try to end what has been a rough April. He has allowed 13 earned runs in just 13 2/3 innings (8.56 ERA) while losing two of his three starts this month. The Angels, behind ace Jose Soriano, cruised

Toronto Blue Jays vs Arizona Diamondbacks Picks and Predictions – April 18th, 2026
Toronto heads into Chase Field on Saturday night trying to steady a shaky start, while Arizona is in the better short-term spot and has already looked more stable through the first few weeks. The Blue Jays come in at 7-10, the Diamondbacks at 11-8, and the market reflects that gap without making Arizona too expensive. First pitch is set in Phoenix, and the opening number has the Diamondbacks around a small home favorite after Arizona beat Toronto 6-3 on Friday. Bettors looking across the board can also compare this matchup with the rest of the day’s MLB game previews. This is the kind of game where the moneyline matters more than the names on the jerseys. Toronto still has enough

Los Angeles Dodgers vs Colorado Rockies Picks and Predictions April 18th, 2026
The Dodgers head back into Coors Field on Saturday night after handling Colorado 7-1 in Friday’s opener, and the market is not hiding the gap between these teams. Los Angeles comes in as a heavy road favorite at -290, Colorado sits at +232, and the total is all the way up at 11.0. That number alone tells you what this game is supposed to look like. Coors changes everything. Routine fly balls become damage, bullpen outs get harder to find, and even a game that starts quiet can get loose in a hurry. For a broader look at the slate, bettors can also check the rest of the day’s MLB game previews. This matchup is less about asking who the
