MLB – Major League Baseball sports betting news, odds and picks
Baseball takes its show to London this weekend, and while the travel is onerous and disrupts the flow of a season, Yankees and Red Sox players seem to be enjoying it. Their social media feeds certainly seem to think so, anyway. Elsewhere on Thursday, starters for the All-Star Game in Cleveland were announced, with a […] More
London is calling for Major League Baseball for the first time, and the sport is ready to jump across the pond for a two-game Red Sox-Yankees series this weekend. The trip figures to present plenty of good social media opportunities for the teams and players involved, too. Back stateside, Craig Kimbrel is ready to join […] More
Manny Machado returned to Baltimore on Tuesday night for the first time since the Orioles traded him to the Dodgers last summer. He signed with the San Diego Padres in the offseason and received a resounding ovation when he took the plate for the first time. And then he homered later in the game. Meanwhile, […] More
When your luck has got you down, sometimes you’ve just got to change something. That’s what the Philadelphia Phillies tried on Monday, anyway. With their team mired in a seven-game losing streak, the Phillies’ official team Twitter account changed its avatar to a four-leaf clover (complete with Phillies logo, of course) and its profile picture […] More
The Dodgers are having a dream season thus far, and the dreamiest weekend of all just passed. L.A. had a rookie hit a walk-off home run on Friday … and on Saturday … and on Sunday. Three different rookies playing hero for a team with plenty of All-Star veterans is pretty amazing. If you’re the […] More
The Dodgers have won via walk-off on two straight nights, both from rookies. So what else to do for the rookies but to congratulate each other on social media?

Albert Pujols’ return to St. Louis became even better with a home run in the second game of the Angels’ trip to face the Cardinals.

In Albert Pujols’ seventh season in Anaheim, he finally got a return trip to St. Louis — and it was worth the wait. Cardinals fans gave their former hero a long standing ovation and gave him the welcome he deserved in the town where he became a star. Dallas Keuchel didn’t become a star in […] More
The Blue Jays welcomed an NBA champion to the Rogers Centre on Thursday night, then gave Kawhi Leonard a standing ovation as they tried to persuade him to stay in Toronto. Across the continent, next to the (former) home of the other NBA finalist, the Athletics staged a dramatic walk-off victory over the Rays. The […] More
In one of the more creative proposals Major League Baseball has seen in modern times, the Tampa Bay Rays will explore the idea of splitting their home games between the Tampa area and Montreal. How exactly that will work still seems unclear, though the idea does say the Rays would start the season in Florida […] More
