The MLB schedule is a mighty one, taking more than half a year to come to a close. But having such a long duration means one thing for online sports betting fans – awesome betting opportunities. It allows our MLB picks to build a sample, hopefully overcoming variance, and provides the largest range of bets (and possible value) in comparison to any other sport. Check out the top sports betting sites for betting on baseball.

Toronto Blue Jays

If we’re honest, Yusei-Kikuchi needs to drastically alter his pitch mix as he throws his worst pitches. But that’s another story. Although we haven’t backed him personally this year, we’ll give this team a chance to prove their worth.

The projections for the Blue Jays seem to be obsessed with Adrian Martinez, but we can’t help but notice the 5.xx FIPs that he posted at his last two Triple A stops. Then, he wasn’t a prospect of any significance – so what’s changed? Overall, the Blue Jays have an incredible increase in offensive firepower, and we’re not surprised that they aren’t closer towards -190.

Detroit Tigers

Drew Hutchison has a bad reputation. If you haven’t already worked it out, we’re referring to the fact that he hasn’t been on a Major League mound for at least four years. With a 5.88 xERA and a 5.53 xERA, he hasn’t been a great reliever – so it’s a little bit of a mystery that he’s getting a check.

Although we doubt the Tigers want him to stay among their ranks for too long, there are a lot of things that can be done in just 4 IP. Tyler Alexander, the long man, is unlikely to be available after he worked 3.1 IP Monday. Although this doesn’t seem like a great spot in Detroit, the value here is still very low because Cal Quantrill isn’t great.

All you need to know about MLB picks

There are some things you should keep in mind when reviewing all these Major League Baseball breakdowns and lines.

First up, it’s a long season. There will be both hot and cold periods. There will be swings of 20+ units. To find the best lines at legal online sportsbooks in your area, always be responsible and shop around.

Secondly, keep in mind that lines can shift dramatically – especially if you are placing bets on game day.
