Best Major League Baseball bets for Wednesday
Public betting info, plus best bets via THE BAT X projection system
Happy Wednesday!
Somehow, this seemingly slow week in July has had a lot of sports betting news — from Drake losing a $300,000 wager on Canada in the Copa America semifinals to Zach Edey becoming the NBA Rookie of the Year favorite after just one Summer League game.
I’ll have a piece for tomorrow interviewing the bettor who wagered $250 on Minnesota Vikings QB Sam Darnold to win MVP at 300-1 odds. What was his reasoning for the bet?
You’ll have to tune in tomorrow to find out.
My Substack now features a daily MLB piece from Derek Carty from THE BAT X. They have a terrific and respected projection model, which provides a ton of great info for bettors to consider before making daily baseball bets. They’ll also recommend a few wagers every day exclusively for my subscribers. Be sure to check out all of their content here.
I’ve attached the public betting info from DraftKings Sportsbook on today’s baseball games as well.
Enjoy!
