In the American League, the Los Angeles Angels are scheduled to take on the Houston Astros. The Angels are coming off of a loss to the Astros, while Houston has won their last two games. Starting pitchers for this game are Gerritt Cole for the Astros and Andrew Heaney for the Angels. Both teams have struggled offensively this season, but the pitching matchup favors Houston. The Astros should win this game.

The Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals are fighting for the second spot in the NL Central, with the Milwaukee Brewers close behind.

The NL West is a closer race, with the Arizona Diamondbacks leading the Colorado Rockies by just a few games.
Pitching Probables
The following is a list of probable pitchers for today’s baseball games. This list includes the starting pitchers for each team, as well as the pitchers that are most likely to follow them in relief. This information can help you make your picks for who will win baseball games today.
American League
The American League is made up of 14 teams split into two divisions, the East and the West. The winner of each division goes on to play in the AL Division Series, with the winner of that advancing to the AL Championship Series. The American League champion then plays the National League champion in the World Series.
In recent years, the American League has been dominant in interleague play, winning more than 60 percent of games.
National League
The National League will see a battle of aces today as the Los Angeles Dodgers travel to play the New York Mets. The Mets will start Jacob deGrom, who has been electric this season with a 1.68 ERA and 0.75 WHIP. The Dodgers will go with Walker Buehler, who has also been great this year with a 2.76 ERA and 1.05 WHIP. This should be a great game between two of the best teams in baseball.

National League
The National League is a professional baseball league in North America that operates under the Major League Baseball (MLB) umbrella. The National League was founded in 1876 and currently consists of 30 teams, spread across the United States and Canada.
While weather conditions can certainly affect baseball games, they tend to have a more significant impact on games played in the National League. This is due in large part to the fact that most of the teams in the National League play their home games in open-air stadiums, as opposed to the closed-dome stadiums used by most of the teams in the American League.
Additionally, because the vast majority of National League teams are located in cities with warmer climates, they are more likely to be affected by inclement weather than their American League counterparts.
Betting Odds
The Yankees are favored to win today’s game against the Red Sox. They have a 75% chance of winning according to the betting odds. The Red Sox have a 25% chance of winning.
American League
In the American League, the New York Yankees are favored to win today’s game against the Boston Red Sox, with odds of -110. The Red Sox are currently listed at +100.
National League
The National League is one of two major league baseball leagues in the United States and Canada. It was founded in 1876. The National League is considered to be the older of the two leagues, and it has a slightly different structure. For example, it has two divisions, East and West, while the American League only has one division, Central.
The National League also has 14 teams, while the American League has 16 teams. The extra teams in the American League are made up for by having what is known as a “designated hitter.” This is a player who bats in place of the pitcher, and he or she does not play in the field.
The National League’s most successful team is the Los Angeles Dodgers. The team has won six World Series titles and 21 pennants.
Our Picks
It’s a new season and we can’t wait to see who will take home the title this year. We’ve rounded up our top picks for who we think will win baseball games today.
American League
The American League of Professional Baseball Clubs, or simply the American League (AL), is one of two leagues that make up Major League Baseball (MLB) in the United States and Canada. It developed from the Western League, a minor league based in the Great Lakes states, which eventually aspired to major league status. It is sometimes called the Junior Circuit because it claimed Major League status for the 1901 season, 25 years after the formation of the National League.
Today, one of its sixteen clubs, the Houston Astros, participates in the World Series, which determines MLB’s champion. The AL benefited from several rule changes that addresses a balance between pitcher’s control and hitter’s power which were effected after 1903. These advantage led to a slight decline in hits per game from an average of 9.24 during 1902–1903 to 7.86 in 1904;[1] but strikeouts per game increased only marginally from an average of 3.44 during 1902–1903 to 3.79 in 1904.[2] runs per game also dropped sharply in 1904 from 5.58 to 4.13.[3]
National League
In the National League, we like the Cubs to come out on top against the Pirates. The Cubs have been playing well lately and we think they’ll continue their winning ways today. We also like the Padres to beat the Rockies. The Padres have a strong pitching staff and we think they’ll be able to shut down the Rockies’ batters.
