As the MLB season moves into July, the playoff picture is beginning to take shape and momentum is becoming a major factor. We’re seeing teams either making that mid-season push or falling behind. This is where smart betting strategy—combined with trend analysis—can give us the edge. Underdogs are sneaking in wins, bullpens are becoming more reliable, and clutch bats are emerging across the league.
Yesterday’s card gave us a mixed bag. We went 1 for 2:
✅ Baltimore Orioles vs Texas Rangers – We covered! Gunnar Henderson went off, driving in four runs in extras as the Orioles powered past the Rangers 10-6 in 11 innings.
❌ New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays – We didn’t cover. Despite a tight battle, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. broke the tie in the sixth with a two-run single, leading the Jays to a 5-4 win.
Let’s turn the page and dive into today’s top picks:
Milwaukee Brewers (+107) (Freddy Peralta) at New York Mets
We like the Brewers to win here. Milwaukee is 13-4 SU in its last 17 against the Mets and 5-0 SU in its last 5 playing in New York. Meanwhile, the Mets are reeling—just 3-13 in their last 16 games overall.
Tampa Bay Rays (-144) (Shane Baz) vs Oakland Athletics
Tampa Bay should roll in this matchup. The Rays are 7-3 in their last 10 against AL West teams, while the Athletics continue to struggle, going just 3-6 in their last 9. Tampa has also owned this head-to-head, winning 12 of their last 18 meetings.
Final Thoughts:
These plays are based on recent form, head-to-head stats, and favorable matchups. Whether you’re betting on FanDuel, DraftKings, PrizePicks, Underdog, Sleeper, or ESPNBet—these bets carry strong value. Bet smart, bet responsibly, and enjoy the action!
