The MLB season is deep into the summer grind, and this is where true momentum starts to separate contenders from pretenders. For bettors, it’s about capitalizing on trends, recent matchups, and those subtle edges that books can overlook. We’ve seen hot streaks busted and underdogs rise, and now is the time to stay disciplined and stick to strategy.
Yesterday was a rough one, going 0-for-2 on our picks. The Toronto Blue Jays had their 10-game winning streak snapped in a tough 2-1 loss to the White Sox. Adrian Houser was lights out over seven innings, and the bats never woke up for Toronto. The Tigers also fell short, ending their five-game streak as first-time All-Star Junior Caminero led the Rays to a 7-3 win with a big night at the plate. Tough break, but that’s the nature of the grind—we bounce back today.
Let’s move on to today’s top plays:
Texas Rangers (-121) vs Los Angeles Angels
We like the Rangers to get it done here. Texas is 9-2 straight up in its last 11 games against the Angels, and LA hasn’t shown much life lately, going 2-4 SU in its last 6. The Rangers have the advantage at the plate and on the mound today with Patrick Corbin in position to limit damage early.
Seattle Mariners (-126) vs New York Yankees
This is a play based on current momentum versus historical trend. Yes, the Mariners are 2-8 SU in their last 10 against the Yankees, but New York has lost 6 of their last 9, and Seattle’s Bryan Woo has been reliable. The Mariners are looking to build consistency and this matchup gives them that chance.
Final Thoughts
These MLB bets are backed by compelling trends and promising matchups, making them top picks for today’s wagers.

Remember to bet responsibly and enjoy the thrill of the game!
