Major League Baseball (MLB) might not be the most popular sport in the world to wager on, but it still presents a really good betting option. MLB betting comes in many different forms, and this is a season that presents plenty of betting opportunities as well.

Major League Baseball was founded all the way back in 1876, but the league has obviously gone through some major changes since that time. Most of the major rules are still in place, but the way that the game is played is now much different.

There are currently 30 teams in MLB, and every team plays 162 games during the regular season. MLB games typically start at the end of March, or early April, and the World Series wraps up during the first week of November.

MLB teams are split up into leagues and divisions, but there is now more crossover games than ever before. The American League and National League now operate under the same basic rules, and that keeps things similar regardless of what league you are looking at.

Knowing the best MLB betting sites &amp; sportsbooks is also important if you plan to bet on MLB, and this article will explore that as well. By the time you are done reading this article, you should be ready to bet on baseball.

Miami (OH) RedHawks vs Akron Zips NCAA Basketball Betting Pick & Prediction 1/25/25

<p>The NHL schedule is not going to be busy on Wednesday, March 23, with four games to be played including a Western Conference clash, so don’t miss out on the best Blackhawks vs. Ducks betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>These conference foes have met on two occasions this season, both time in Chicago and each time the Blackhawks were better. They will be looking for a season sweep here.</p>



<p>The Ducks are -120 moneyline favorites with the total being set at 6 goals, according to <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bookmaker/">Bookmaker Sportsbook</a>.</p>



<h2>Chicago is on a losing run</h2>



<p>The Chicago Blackhawks are pretty much out of the playoff picture this season, and it seems that they are not even trying anymore. The Blackhawks lost each of the last three games and recorded just six wins since February 1.</p>



<p>The most recent 6-4 home loss to the Winnipeg Jets exposed the Blackhawks’ defense that allowed four goals in the second period. Chicago did manage to cut the deficit to just one goal, but Blake Wheeler scored an empty-net goal for the visitors and closed this encounter.</p>



<p>Kevin Lankinen will start at the goal against the Ducks on Wednesday. The 27-year-old goaltender has a 3-8-4-0 record this season with a 3.51 GAA and a .889 save percentage without shutouts. The Blackhawks are allowing 3.44 goals per game (25th in the NHL) and are scoring 2.60 on the other end (26th) on a 9.1 shooting percentage (23rd).</p>



<h2>Anaheim is struggling at the moment</h2>



<p>The Anaheim Ducks are even in a worse form than the Blackhawks; they are going through their weakest period of the campaign with seven consecutive losses. Actually, a blowout 8-3 road loss to Chicago was a catalyst for this poor streak, and the Ducks didn’t score more than three goals during this stretch.</p>



<p>The latest 6-3 defeat to the Nashville Predators at home was surprising, considering the result was 2-2 after the opening two periods. Nashville destroyed Anaheim in the last 20 minutes, while the Ducks’ goalie John Gibson allowed six goals on just 31 attempts. Derek Grant, Kevin Shattenkirk, and Trevor Zegras each recorded two points for the Ducks in this loss.</p>



<p>John Gibson will get a chance to make amends as he will start at the goal again, this time around against the Blackhawks on Wednesday. The 29-year old goaltender has a 17-20-5-4 record this season with a 3.09 GAA and a .905 save percentage with one shutout. The Ducks allow 3.15 goals per game (21st in the NHL) and score 2.80 a night (22nd) on a 9.4 shooting percentage (18th).</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Chicago:</strong></p>



<ul><li>1-4 in the last five games overall</li><li>4-12 in the last 16 games against an opponent in the Western Conference</li></ul>



<p><strong>Anaheim:</strong></p>



<ul><li>13-5 in the last 18 games as a favorite</li><li>9-4 in the last 13 games as a home favorite</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-chicago-blackhawks-vs-anaheim-ducks-pick">Chicago Blackhawks vs. Anaheim Ducks Pick</h2>



<p>This one is going to be hard to predict because both teams are struggling. However, the Ducks will be more motivated as they still have chances of getting to the playoffs, which cannot be said for the Blackhawks.</p>



<p>Also, the Ducks will be looking to avoid the season sweep against the team that is not even close to the playoff picture. Anaheim owns Chicago one for the aforementioned 8-3 loss; it was the Ducks’ biggest defeat of the season.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Take the Anaheim Ducks at -120</p>



<p><strong>The Total</strong></p>



<p>Gibson will be desperate to show a way better performance following his recent loss against Nashville. I expect Anaheim’s goalie to play better in this one, but Chicago’s goaltender Lankinen is not very reliable this season. That said, I believe he will be under heavy fire from the Ducks and will let multiple goals, four or more. Marc-Andre Fleury was at the goal for the Blackhawks in the latest H2H duel and conceded three, so I expect Lankinen to have problems here.</p>



<p>The total has gone Over in five of Anaheim's last seven games against Chicago, while the total went Over in eight of the Ducks’ previous 11 games against an opponent in the Western Conference. On the other side, Over is 7-2 in the Blackhawks’ last nine overall, while Over is 6-2 in Chicago’s previous eight games as an underdog.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Over 6 goals at +100</p>

<p>The 2022 MLB season goes on Thursday, April 21, with a ten-game card, so we’re taking a closer look at the AL West showdown from T-Mobile Park in Seattle to bring you the best Rangers vs. Mariners betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>Texas and Seattle close down their three-game series, and the Mariners are listed as -145 moneyline favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/mybookie/"><strong>MyBookie Sportsbook</strong></a>. The Rangers are +134 road underdogs, while the totals sit at 8.0 runs.</p>



<h2>The Strangers dropped eight of their first ten tilts in 2022                       </h2>



<p>The Texas Rangers started a three-game road set against the Mariners with a 6-2 defeat, extending their losing streak to four games. After scoring a couple of runs off Robbie Ray, the Rangers were helpless against the Mariners’ bullpen. On the other side, Jon Gray had another rough outing, allowing four earned runs through five innings of work.</p>



<p>The Rangers’ pitching staff has been horrible so far this season. Texas owns the highest ERA (6.24) and surrenders the most runs per game in the majors (6.50). Furthermore, the Strangers’ bullpen carries a pedestrian 5.68 ERA and 5.79 FIP, yielding a whopping 2.13 home runs per nine innings.</p>



<p>Taylor Hearn will toe the slab Thursday in Seattle, and the 27-year-old lefty is 0-1 with a 4.70 ERA, 2.09 WHIP, and 10/2 K/BB ratio on the season. He’s allowed 14 hits through 7.2 innings of work. Hearn is 0-3 with a 6.20 ERA in three career starts and nine relief appearances against Seattle.</p>



<h2>The M’s beat Texas for their second straight W           </h2>



<p>The Seattle Mariners improved to 6-5 on the young season following a 6-2 victory over the Rangers in Tuesday’s opener. It was their second win in a row and fourth in their previous five outings, as the M’s started a nine-game homestand with a couple of wins in a tough three-game set against the Houston Astros.</p>



<p>The Mariners own the sixth-lowest ERA (3.03) and the third-lowest WHIP in the majors (1.07). Their bullpen carries a sparkly 2.27 ERA and 2.94 FIP while striking out 10.8 and walking only 2.5 per nine innings.</p>



<p>Marco Gonzales will take the hill Thursday. The 30-year-old lefty was pounded by the Twins in his season debut, allowing six runs (two earned) across just two innings, but he bounced back in Seattle’s 11-1 dismantling of the Astros. Gonzales allowed only one earned run on four hits while punching out six. He’s 8-6 with a 3.73 ERA in 16 career starts against the Rangers.</p>



<h2>Trends:</h2>



<p><strong>Texas:</strong></p>



<ul><li>2-8 in the last ten games overall</li><li>2-17 in the last 19 road games against Seattle</li></ul>



<p><strong>Seattle:</strong></p>



<ul><li>13-4 in the last 17 games against Texas</li><li>7-3 in the last ten games at home&nbsp;</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-texas-rangers-vs-seattle-mariners-pick">Texas Rangers vs. Seattle Mariners Pick</h2>



<p>On paper, the Rangers are a better offensive team than the Mariners, but Seattle’s bullpen could be an X-factor down the stretch. The Mariners have plenty of interesting options in their bullpen, while the Rangers will be in big trouble if Taylor Hearn starts to struggle.</p>



<p>The M’s have been awful against the lefties thus far, but they are batting .299/.451/.367 in 50 plate appearances against Hearn. If they get into the Rangers’ bullpen early, the hosts should come out on top.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Seattle Mariners at -145&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>The totals are a tricky wager because T-Mobile Park is a pitcher-friendly ballpark, but I cannot back the under with the Rangers’ pitching staff on it. The opener produced eight runs in the total, while the Rangers have allowed five or more runs in eight of their first ten showings in 2022.</p>



<p>Marco Gonzales will have a difficult job in this matchup. The Rangers are certainly capable of scoring a few runs. They have a .870 OPS against the lefties.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go over 8.0 runs at -115</strong></p>
