MLB Power Ratings and SOS Report – Tuesday, August 19, 2025

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.


🔥 Milwaukee Brewers Still on Fire

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.


📊 MLB Power Ratings – Last 14 Games (Aug 19, 2025)

1 Milwaukee Brewers 13-1 92.86 45.92 0.69

3 Baltimore Orioles 7-7 50.00 55.61 0.53

📉 Teams in Trouble

Several big-market teams are flashing red warning lights:

  • New York Mets (0.47 PR) – just 4 wins in their last 14 despite a strong SOS.
  • Texas Rangers (0.43 PR) – struggling mightily with a brutal schedule.
  • Chicago White Sox (0.42 PR) – in full collapse mode, posting just 3 wins in their last 14.

Bettors should be cautious backing these clubs until they prove they can stabilize.


💎 Value Plays and Market Watch

  • Baltimore, Cincinnati, and Minnesota: Performing well against tough schedules—potential undervalued betting spots.
  • Oakland & LAA: Playing .500 ball but against stronger competition than the market realizes. Could be sneaky value in the right matchups.
  • Milwaukee: White-hot, but beware of inflated prices. The market is charging a premium.

✅ Conclusion

The MLB SOS Power Ratings give bettors a sharper edge by highlighting which teams are truly battle-tested. On August 19, the Brewers, Reds, and Phillies look like legitimate power teams, while the Mets, Rangers, and White Sox are fading fast.
