Predictions, odds, and pick for the Dodgers versus Braves game on May 4, 2025, outlined below.
Time to dive back into our MLB odds analysis with a Dodgers-Braves prediction and pick. Here's how to catch this showdown:
The L.A. Dodgers have been grappling with injuries to their starting pitchers and the back end of their bullpen. Stars like Tyler Glasnow, Blake Snell, and Blake Treinen have missed time or been less effective due to injuries. Despite these setbacks, the Dodgers have managed a stellar 23-10 record through 33 games.
This team's depth and versatility have shone through, with others stepping up to fill gaps when needed. The Dodgers boast a roster constructed so well that they've got options to handle a 162-game season.
For tonight's matchup, Dustin May goes to the mound for the Dodgers, sporting a 3.95 ERA. After an ordinary outing against the Marlins, May aims to deliver six solid innings against the Braves to secure a victory.
In the Braves' camp, Bryce Elder takes the mound with a less-impressive 5.33 ERA. For Atlanta to recuperate and clinch a wild card spot, Elder needs to step up and provide length and quality innings over the long season ahead.
