The MLB season is entering a crucial stretch as teams fight for playoff positioning, and bettors are finding more defined trends to capitalize on. By mid-July, momentum matters—hot teams keep rolling, while cold ones struggle to find their footing. This is the time to trust the numbers, lean into streaks, and target matchups with lopsided momentum.
Yesterday, we went 1-for-2 with our picks.
✅ The New York Mets took care of business against the Kansas City Royals, thanks to a late surge. Mark Vientos smashed a bases-loaded double in the 8th, and Francisco Lindor crushed a three-run bomb in the 9th to seal an 8-3 win. However, we missed on the Houston Astros vs. Texas Rangers matchup.
❌ Wyatt Langford had a monster night with four hits and a homer, while Adolis García added a solo shot, lifting the Rangers to a 7-3 win over Houston.
Today, we’ve got two value plays that stand out based on recent performance and trends.
Minnesota Twins (-144) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates
We’re backing the Twins at home. Pittsburgh has completely fallen off the tracks, going 0-7 in its last seven and a brutal 0-9 in its last nine road games. Minnesota is heating up, winning 5 of its last 7. With momentum on their side and home-field advantage, the Twins are in a great spot to deliver.
Detroit Tigers (-127)(Casey Mize) vs. Seattle Mariners
We’re riding with the Tigers here. Detroit is 5-2 in its last 7 and holds a clear trend edge over Seattle, who has lost 10 of its last 14 against Detroit. With Casey Mize on the mound and the Mariners struggling to find consistency, Detroit offers solid value.
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!
