How to Bet on Thursday’s MLB Slate
One of my favorite way to approach MLB betting is by looking at recent trends. Over the course of the 162-game regular season, every team goes through ups and downs, no matter how good or how bad. Right now, the Los Angeles Dodgers are the hottest team in professional baseball. They’re in an absolute groove that feels impossible to overcome.
That’s what makes Thursday’s game between the Dodgers and Brewers so intriguing from a betting standpoint. Let’s take a deeper look.
Dodgers-Brewers Preview
The Brewers are 65-56 and are the current leaders in the National League Central division. Before meeting up with the Dodgers this week, they had won four straight games. And on Thursday, they have their ace Corbin Burners on the mound (3.60 ERA).
The Dodgers are just a different beast right now. Freddie Freeman is playing out of his mind (.337 batting average, .997 OPS). Mookie Betts is one of the best players in all of baseball (.973 OPS, 6.0 WAR). And their supporting cast of James Outman, J.D. Martinez, Will Smith and Max Muncy are as dangerous as any in the MLB.
Behind those guys, the Dodgers have won 14 of their last 15 games, including 10 straight. Backing the Dodgers is as good of an idea as any in sports betting this Thursday.
The Bet
BetMGM Sportsbook has the Dodgers at +135 to cover the run line (-1.5). Consider using your first bet with BetMGM to back the Dodgers against the run line, and if they lose, that’s where your BetMGM promo code comes in handy to give you a second chance.
