Detroit is just one game behind the Minnesota Twins in a muddled American League Central as they aim to push for divisional supremacy or a wild card berth. Both of these teams have enough talent to make a postseason push, but there are also concerns.Texas has been up and down this year but has really put it all together of late and hopes to keep it rolling. The Tigers are a legitimate foe and playing at home, so it would be a big surprise to see the Rangers’ streak last through the entire weekend.... 

The Cubs are coming off of a sweep of the Reds and will aim to stay hot in a matchup against the Milwaukee Brewers this weekend. Milwaukee has been one of the most pleasant surprises in the major leagues early on as they are 24-18 and atop the National League Central, two games in front of the Cubs.While Milwaukee has the superior record, Chicago is more talented and gets these games at home, which will make it the favorite to win the majority of the matchups.... 

The San Francisco Giants and Chicago Cubs may be the two biggest disappointments in the National League. Sure, the Cubs are still very much in the thick of the NL Central, but this is much better than a .500 club. Likewise, the Giants are a better team than their dismal record suggests, but offense has been hard to come by. The team will hope their recent surge is sustainable as they head to the Windy City.You can bet on MLB odds at BookMaker.eu every day of the season....

The New York Yankees will head to Florida still sitting atop the AL East while the Tampa Bay Rays sit closer to the bottom of the division despite climbing back closer to the .500 mark. These two teams have already met six times here in 2017 with the Yankees taking four of those games and outscoring the Rays by a combined 10-runs.... 

The San Francisco Giants have shown signs of life over the last week. They still sit at the bottom of the standings, but the Giants are at least playing better as they get set for their weekend series in the nation’s heartland against the NL Central leading St. Louis Cardinals. A couple losses against Boston leading into this series will have the Cardinals needing to bounce back at home where they’ve been worse than they have on the road since the start of 2016.... 

The Mariners have a bunch of spot starters taking the hill in these matchups, although the White Sox don’t have a strong pitching staff either, so runs could be plentiful in this series despite the games being played in a pitcher-friendly park.Both Chicago and Seattle are trying to hang around in the playoff chase but need to play well in the next few weeks.... 

The Dodgers are the superior team and get these four games at home, so they would love to win the series. Miami is not playing up to its expectations and a split would be a reasonable expectation for the Marlins in this one.The Washington Nationals have been the best team in the N.L. this season and the Chicago Cubs are going to hit their groove at some point, but don’t discount the Dodgers’ ability to be among the elite clubs. They will aim to flex their muscle in this series against an inferior opponent.... 

The Boston Red Sox remain behind the Yankees and Orioles in the AL East, but both of those teams have started to show cracks in the armor. Now is the time for the Red Sox to make a run. On paper, they’re still the best team in the division and they’ll get a nice buffer series this weekend against a lackluster Oakland Athletics team as they look to gain ground in the standings.... 

Neither team is exactly thriving right now as the Philadelphia Phillies get set to head west to take on the Pittsburgh Pirates in a three-game battle-for-Pennsylvania series this weekend. Both teams sit around .500 at home, giving the Buccos a decisive advantage over a Phillies’ team that’s 6-14 this year on the road.... 

The Philadelphia Phillies head to Texas at the wrong time with the Texas Rangers surging, winning six straight and starting their home stand with five straight wins. The Phillies, on the other hand, are reeling. They’ve dropped 12 of their last 15 games. As the Rangers try to get back into the AL West race, the Phillies will try and stop the bleeding.... 

The Baltimore Orioles went from winning six straight to dropping four in a row and will be looking to get back into the win column and snap their first losing streak of more than two games in their series against the Detroit Tigers this week. This will be the first meeting between the two clubs this year after the Birds took five of seven from the Tigers in 2016.... 

The Cardinals have been one of the hottest team in baseball over the past few weeks and will aim to keep it rolling. Boston might have more talent than St. Louis but hasn’t put it all together on the season and is hovering near .500 at 19-18.Both of these teams believe they are good enough to make the playoffs and this is an intriguing early-season interleague showdown.... 

Washington has looked like one of the most well-rounded teams in the major leagues through six weeks, using impressive starting pitching and a dominant lineup to run roughshod over the competition. The Nationals are 24-13 on the season and already a full eight games ahead of the closest challenged in the National League East.The Pirates, meanwhile, are only 16-22 overall and sit in last place in the National League Central. If they don’t turn it around in a hurry, Pittsburgh will be sellers at the trade deadline.... 

This series will be contested from Monday, May 15, 2017 through Wednesday, May 17, 2017 at Chase Field in Phoenix. Wednesday's clash is being shown on the MLB Network for those out of the local markets.Bet on MLB odds at BookMaker.eu every day of the season....

The Houston Astros have raced out to the best record in the major leagues through six weeks of play, and will aim to stay hot when they start the week in a series with the Miami Marlins. While Miami has a group of talented youngsters in the field, the offense hasn’t gotten on track yet and the pitching hasn’t picked it up as the Marlins are just 14-22 on the season.... 

The Toronto Blue Jays were determined not to see their season end before it began. After a brutal beginning of the season, Toronto has rattled off five consecutive victories to get back to within four games of .500. The Blue Jays will aim to stay hot when they host the Atlanta Braves to begin the week....

Chicago has the home field advantage and is the more talented team, so it should expect to win at least two of the three games in this series. San Diego is in a rebuilding mode and at 13-22 are already realistically out of playoff contention since the roster is weak.The Padres are capable of putting good games together every once in a while, but if the White Sox hope to hang in the American League Central this year, they need to take advantage of playing an inferior opponent at home.... 

The Royals have this series at home and hopes to take advantage of that, while Baltimore would love to come in and use its superior lineup to capture a couple games. Nobody has run away with the American League Central early on so the Royals have time to turn it around, but they need to start showing some signs of life or else they will be dismissed as a legitimate playoff hopeful.The season is still young, but Kansas City is already facing a crossroads....

By mid-May, the New York Mets were supposed to be battling for the top spot in the NL East on the shoulders of their strong, young rotation while the Milwaukee Brewers were scuffling as fodder at the bottom of the NL Central for the likes of the Cubs and Cardinals. Instead, as these teams get set for a three-game weekend series, the Brewers actually enter play with the better record.... 

The Washington Nationals remain the best team in the National League after a walk-off victory on Wednesday night against the Orioles. The Nationals will welcome in the Philadelphia Phillies for a three-game weekend set after finishing up against Baltimore and will aim to put even more distance between them and the rest of the division in the already lopsided NL East standings....
