As the MLB season hits full stride in July, we’re seeing clear separation between contenders and pretenders—and that’s where smart betting comes into play. Teams build rhythm, hitters settle in, and pitching rotations begin to show their true strength. This stretch is when momentum matters most, and we’re locked in on the matchups that offer sharp betting value. Whether you’re riding trends or fading cold clubs, this is the time to stay dialed in.
And that’s exactly what we did yesterday, going 2-for-2 with our picks. First, the Toronto Blue Jays kept their win streak alive, edging the Angels 3-2 behind a clutch homer from Bo Bichette and solid team play. That marked their eighth straight win. Then we had the Milwaukee Brewers, who cashed big behind Brandon Woodruff in his return after 651 days away. Woodruff pitched six strong innings, and Jackson Chourio powered the offense with a homer and three RBIs in a 3-1 win over the Marlins.
Today’s MLB Picks
Texas Rangers (-155) (Jacob deGrom) at Los Angeles Angels
We’re riding with the Rangers today. Texas has flat-out dominated this matchup, going 8-0 SU in their last 8 games against the Angels, and 6-1 SU in their last 7 road games at Angel Stadium. With deGrom on the mound and the bats backing him up, this is a strong spot to lay the chalk.
Detroit Tigers (+108) (Keider Montero) at Tampa Bay Rays
The value play of the day belongs to the Tigers. Detroit has won 6 of their last 8, and Tampa Bay has dropped 5 of their last 7. Plus, Detroit has had the Rays’ number recently, going 6-3 in their last 9 matchups. With Montero on the mound and confidence on their side, the Tigers are a live dog in this one.
