Penneant races are heating up, and teams are bringing their A game every night, as well as some teams that are not so good and out of the playoff races, not throwing in the towel yet either This is also the time of year that opportunity knocks for sharp players to make large profits on MLB wagering, as oddsmakers are slower to react to changes in MLB with the king of all betting, football, now in full swing and taking a lot of attention away from bases.
With the All Star break nearing it is time to take stock of some of the better teams in MLB.
Here is a look with some notes on my Top 10 teams in MLB betting circles as of June 15th.
1. LA Dodgers – With 42 wins, the Dodgers have done it without the services on Manny, and hitting just .220 as a team and averaging under 3 runs a game in their last 10. The bullpen has an ERA of 2.97 on the year and with a solid starter rotation, and Manny coming back soon, they look to be the beast in the West for the entire season.
The fever is at a high pitch. People who never bet, come out of the woodwork to wager on the March madness offerings, NIT and NCAA. Deep down inside, everyone is an action junkie to some extent. Whether it is playing blackjack, online poker, or whatever your flavor, March Madness is a unique high for many people.
