The MLB playoff race is heating up, and bettors know that wins and losses don’t tell the full story. At ATS Stats, we use the Raymond Report Strength of Schedule (SOS) Power Ratings to separate true contenders from pretenders. By combining recent form (last 14 games) with the quality of opponents faced, we reveal which teams are genuinely surging and which ones are overinflated by soft schedules.
No surprise here: the Milwaukee Brewers continue to dominate. With a 13-1 record in their last 14 games and a Power Rating of 0.69, the Brewers boast the highest mark in Major League Baseball right now. They’ve handled business regardless of opponent, and the betting market has noticed.
