These are legitimate bets from the predictive models I have developed over 27 years.

American League Best Bet

Seattle +105 vs Chicago White Sox -115

The Mariners have had two players hit 100+ home runs and 100+ doubles over their first 500 games.

Alex Rodriguez did it from 1994-98 and Richie Sexson did it from 2005-08.

Now, it is very likely Mitch Haniger will be added to that list. Haniger needs two home runs to reach 100 and he already has 100 doubles through 476.

I like Haniger to hit a home run tonight getting +440 as offered at FanDuel Sportsbook.

National League Best Bet

Milwaukee Brewers -165 vs. the Baltimore Orioles +155

I will share a premium 4% Best Bet on this game backed by a highly-profitable betting angle/system that has produced a 26-7 record over the past five seasons. It averages a +138 underdog wager and has made the $100 bettor a profit of $2,910.

The requirements are to bet on any American League team that had a .410 or lower slugging percentage in their previous season and has a current slugging percentage of .350 or lower spanning their past five games.

Quick Hitters On This Game

The Brewers are 40-68 in road games taking on an American League foe that is batting no higher than 0.260.
