It’s another massive day in the MLB, with 16 games on the MLB slate. Thanks to the AI computer model, we’ve found some value on the board we’ll be wagering on. Let’s go ahead and break down the MLB odds at the top-rated betting sites.

The AI Model has the Rangers and Braves scoring 10 runs in tonight’s ESPN game. However, the total is currently at 9.5, meaning the Over has the value via the AI Model.

Texas Rangers vs. Atlanta Braves

Sunday, April 21, 2024 – 07:10 PM ET at Truist Park


Michael Lorenzen will make his second start for the Texas Rangers tonight. He’s only faced 20 batters this year and has already walked 25% of those 20 batters.

He’s also allowed 36.4% of line drives and more than 54% of hard contact to begin the season.

That’s not ideal going up against the Atlanta Braves, who are one of the league’s best offenses. The Braves have hit a .204 ISO and wOBA of .354 against righties since last season.

Darius Vines Isn’t Better

On the other hand, the Braves will send out Darius Vines. He’s a righty who has faced just 19 batters this season. Of those 19 batters, he’s walked 15.8% and has allowed more fly balls than ground balls to begin the season.

The Rangers are just as exciting offensively as the Braves.

MLB Computer Pick

You’d have to figure both teams will have many runners on base throughout the game. A few timely hits, and we’ll have the Over 9.5 cashed in.

I’m with the AI Model. Let’s back the Over.
