MLB odds, lines, picks: Advanced computer model includes Athletics vs. Yankees in parlay for Monday, May 8, that would pay over 7-1

The Pittsburgh Pirates attempt to halt their seven-game losing streak when they host the Colorado Rockies in the opener of a three-game series on Monday (6:35 p.m. ET) at PNC Park. Since posting a 16-1 victory at Washington on Apr. 29, the Pirates (20-15) have endured a slide during which they have been outscored 44-9. Despite the skid, Pittsburgh still owns a half-game lead over Milwaukee in the National League Central. Colorado (14-21) is last in the NL West but has won six of its last seven contests.

For Monday, Pittsburgh is a -178 favorite in the latest Pirates vs. Rockies odds from Caesars Sportsbook, while Colorado is a +150 underdog. The over/under for runs scored is 8. The game is one of 11 on the MLB schedule for Monday evening. (See up-to-date lines for every game on our MLB odds page.)
