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.

<h2>Brooklyn Nets vs. Los Angeles Lakers ATS Preview</h2>
The last time the Nets played, they won a close one over the Chicago Bulls, 110-107, but were unable to cover as 6-point favorites. With 11 points and 15 rebounds, Brooklyn's DeAndre Jordan put together a solid outing. Brooklyn dominated nearly every stat category in the game. They had a phenomenal free throw rate of 0.547 (above their season average of 0.196) and an offensive rebounding percentage of 16.1 (below their season average of 23.6). Chicago put up marks of 0.185 and 10.0, respectively, for those same stats. The two teams combined to score 217 points, which came in just under the O/U total of 219.

The Lakers will look to maintain momentum after defeating the Los Angeles Clippers in their last matchup, 112-103, as 2.5-point underdogs. Los Angeles received a boost from LeBron James, who finished with 28 points, nine assists and seven rebounds. The Lakers forced 15 turnovers and held the Clippers to an effective field goal percentage of 0.436 (below their season average of 0.532). The two squads collectively scored 215 points, which was under the projected point total of 226.5.

These two teams have already met once this season. In that game, the two teams combined for 241 points, which was over the projected point total of 230. The Lakers won 128-113, covering as 5.5-point favorites. The Lakers dominated every facet of the game. They had an offensive rebounding percentage of 25.0 and a free throw rate of 0.160. The Nets were 16.3 and 0.132, respectively, for those same stats. James played a huge role in the victory, recording a triple-double with 27 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.

Of Brooklyn's 63 games, 31 have finished under the O/U total, while 33 of Los Angeles' 62 games have finished under the projected point total. Looking at straight up (SU) and against the spread (ATS) records, the Lakers have a significant advantage. They are 49-13 SU and 35-26-1 ATS, while the Nets are 29-34 SU and 30-31-2 ATS.

Looking at effective field goal percentage, this appears to be a matchup of two heavyweights. The upper-echelon Los Angeles offense ranks fifth in the NBA in that metric at 0.548, while the stingy Brooklyn defense is ranked fourth in effective field goal percentage allowed (0.506). It could also be a mistake-prone game for the offense of the Nets, which ranks 24th in ball security (turnover percentage of 14.2 percent). They'll be going up against the top-notch defense of the Lakers, which forces the fifth-most turnovers in the league (14.6 percent).
