Best MLB Bets for September 4, 2025

The MLB season keeps rolling, and momentum is everything in September. With playoff races heating up, the best bettors know when to ride the hot hand and when to fade teams that are running out of gas. Strategies matter now more than ever, because these final weeks can swing both division titles and bankrolls.

Consistency is the name of the game, and we saw that yesterday when the Tampa Bay Rays came out swinging. Our free pick of the day cashed as the Rays pounded Mariners starter George Kirby early, putting up eight runs in the first two innings. Yandy Díaz’s first career five-hit night powered a 19-hit barrage, and Tampa rolled to a 9-4 victory at George M. Steinbrenner Field. That’s exactly the type of momentum we want to keep building.

For today, we’re locking in on the Milwaukee Brewers at -125 with Freddy Peralta on the mound against the Philadelphia Phillies. While Philly has shown some recent life with a 4-2 stretch, history and trends point to Milwaukee here. The Phillies are just 1-5 in their last six games against the Brewers, 1-4 in their last five road games, and Milwaukee has quietly put together a 13-6 run at home. With Peralta dealing and the Brewers’ home-field edge, this is the spot we like best on today’s slate.
