5 MLB Bold predictions for April 12

5) Dodgers All-Star trio shines

The Los Angeles Dodgers are a talented team, but three stars continue to shine brighter than the rest of the roster. Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts, and Shohei Ohtani are at the top of the lineup and need to produce. One bold prediction to make is that this trio will have plenty of success on Saturday.

4) Rangers beat AL West rivals

The Texas Rangers fell to the Seattle Mariners 5-3 in the series opener on Friday night, but things will be much different in Game 2. Look for Corey Seager to lead the way for the Rangers as they even up the series by getting revenge on the Mariners.

3) Phillies get revenge on Cardinals

The Philadelphia Phillies suffered a 2-0 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night as the offense was unable to get anything going. The Phillies continue to be one of the best offensive teams, and they have the ability to break out in a big way. Saturday will be an offensive show for the Phillies as they will get revenge in this series.

2) Bregman, Devers homer for Red Sox

Taking some risk is important when making bold predictions, but you should also be looking at accomplished players. Alex Bregman and Rafael Devers are two of the best hitters for the Boston Red Sox, and each player will homer as they blow past the Chicago White Sox on Saturday.

1) Yankees score 6+ runs
