Here is what the data is telling us for today's MLB games ⏬

Nationals @ Braves

BET: 🔥 Atlanta Braves at the run line with PointsBet (+112)

📈 2.8% edge against the sportsbooks' odds

The Braves are coming two disappointing games in a row but we've got them bouncing back in a big way!

The Washington Nationals have failed to stay within a run of their opponents in four consecutive games, and our model likes the Braves to make it five in a row!

But more than just that, when PointsBet is offering free bets like they are in the offer below, why wouldn't you take advantage!?

Cardinals @ Dodgers

BET: 🔥 Total runs OVER 6.5 with William Hill Sportsbook (-115)

📈 53.7% probability

Next up we've got an Over play in the St Louis Cardinals / LA Dodgers game! The run total for this one has been set at just 6.5 and model is strong on us seeing 7+ runs.

For a play like this, it's hard to look past this offer from William Hill Sportsbook who are giving new customers in certain states a RISK-FREE bet up to $500 - see if your state is one of them here. Basically, you can deposit as much or as little as you like (we recommend around $50) and then place your bet on our play. If we get it right, you cash in! If not, that's okay - they'll give you your money back to use again on another bet.
