MLB Who’s Hot and Who’s Not – June 26
The start of summer is heating things up outside all across the Major League, but right now there is no place hotter than Southern California when it comes to making money betting on MLB games with BetAnySports.
With Sunday’s 12-6 pounding of Colorado as -160 home favorites, the Los Angeles Dodgers extended their current winning streak to 10 games. Anyone along for the ride with a $100 moneyline bet on all 10 victories would be up a cool grand right now after the Dodgers closed as heavy favorites in every contest. They are now a NL-best 51-26 on the year and 2.5 games up on Arizona in the tightly contested NL West Division race. The Rockies slipped to 4.5 games off the pace after getting swept by Los Angeles this weekend.
The Dodgers will welcome the Los Angeles Angels to town for two games as part of this week’s interleague home-and-home four-game series. BetAnySports has opened them as -205 home favorites to keep this winning streak going with a victory in Game 1 on Monday night. The total line for this matchup has been set at nine with Ricky Nolasco getting the start for the Angels while the Dodgers turn to Rich Hill as their starter.
Farther up the West Coast in the Bay Area, the Oakland Athletics made some noise this weekend with a three-game sweep over the Chicago White Sox as slight road favorites in all three contests. Betting on the A’s has been an adventure during the month of June with an overall record of 11-13 that includes a four-game and three-game winning streak and a pair of three-game losing streaks to go along with four-straight losses to Houston last week at home. Oakland will go on the road this week to face the Astros in a three-game set starting this Tuesday.
Houston has the best record in baseball at 52-25 and it is 7-3 in its last 10 games. Its total return on a moneyline wager with BetAnySports stands at plus $1305. The best moneyline return in the Majors heading into this week’s games still belongs to Colorado at plus $1820 even with its current five-game losing streak. The San Francisco Giants are the costliest betting team in the league with a loss of -$2306 on a $100 moneyline wager.
