Where To Bet MLB Online

Graeme

As you can imagine, every single online sportsbook there is offers up MLB Betting.

However there are some online sportsbooks that stand out among the rest. Sportsbooks where you should be signing up at to bet your major league baseball on a consistent basis.

Sometimes that’s simply due to trust – knowing you’ll get your money when you win. Other times it’s due to what they offer, when they release their lines and the odds on those lines. Then there is bonuses too – sportsbooks that offer good deposit bonuses with an easy wagering requirement.

So let’s discuss the best online sportsbooks to bet Major League Baseball at:

Where To Bet Major League Baseball:

America: Probably the best place is Bovada. Formerly known as Bodog these guys have been around since the 2000s so you know they’re trustworthy. Baseball is one of the sports they push the most and because of that they offer up solid lines. Bovada also have a deposit bonus and a great selection of baseball betting options, MLB futures and game by game props. In saying that, BetOnline is also an excellent choice because baseball can be about betting sharp lines, and Americans will find great lines there.

Canada: A great choice is the exclusively Canadian Sports Interaction. One major reason for that is Blue Jays games – as they get a lot of casual fans backing the Jays due to being only Canadian, the odds against the Blue Jays are always great and make it worth betting against them. They also have been around forever, offer a great variety of props and if you like to bet hockey as well, are the best sportsbook for Canadians by far.

Everywhere Else: The best option is Bet365 Sportsbook. If you’re betting baseball, they are the best non-American sportsbook as their lines are great and you won’t find better odds anywhere else.

Where To Make Specific MLB Bets:

MLB Games: The most common question answered – where the heck do I bet on MLB Games? In this article I go in-depth to where to bet them and why to choose these particular sportsbooks. It lists the best sportsbooks to bet MLB due to the amount of lines they cover and potential bets as well as the juice. I cover the common bets although I also go into more detail about them in the articles below.

MLB Moneylines: One of the most popular options in baseball betting – betting on who will win a game.

MLB Runlines: MLB Runlines are like the point spread in NFL or basketball, but applied to baseball. In this article I break down what they are, how they work and are calculated and the best places to bet them.

MLB 5 Innings: One of the most popular bets in Major League Baseball is to bet on just the first 5 innings as it reduces variance as you’re banking on the starter lasting those 5 innings which usually happens. You can bet the 5 inning money line, run line and more. I break the 5 innings bets down here and offer strategy for it. We’ve also got an individual article on MLB 5 Inning Moneylines and one on MLB 5 Inning Runlines and MLB 5 Inning Over/Unders.

What MLB Bets/Props Are There?

Baseball Deposit Bonuses

MLB betting is betting on the outcome of a particular game within baseball or events within that game or baseball as a whole.

There is “MLB Future Betting” which involves betting events which won’t be decided until far into the future. Such as betting player awards or who will win the pennant or world series.

Then there is the basic MLB betting – the three most common bets are who will win a game, the run line bet and the over/under on amount of runs.

Each MLB game has hundreds of potential other bets that you can make though and there really isn’t much that you can’t bet on.

Common MLB Betting Questions:

How does Run Line betting work?

So let’s say the Jays are taking on the Yankees and the run line is Jays -1.5 and that’s what you bet. That means you take 1.5 away from the Jays final score and they still have to beat the Yankess despite that. So if the Jays win 8-6 then you take 1.5 away from the Jays score and it’s 6.5-6 so the Jays still win.

The line is set with a .5 so that there will always be a winner as a push doesn’t help anyone.

Where To Watch MLB Online:

The best option to watch MLB online is MLB.TV. They offer different streams for each team and it’s the best service you can get.

MLB Betting Strategy:

Betting on MLB is a real big numbers game and there are many models people use to try and make money betting major league baseball.

My own recommendation is to start small – pick a betting prop that you feel a lot of people don’t bet on. One that isn’t fully researched by the sportsbooks or the oddsmakers – and start looking for an edge. Come up with a system that you feel may result in a profitable outcome then test it historically.

Look for those small edges and do the work the oddsmakers don’t.
