We have sixteen MLB games on Tuesday, August 9. This includes a double header! There have been tons of great betting opportunities on OddsJam, and I’ll be sharing my best MLB picks & predictions in this preview.

Angels vs. Athletics Picks, Predictions and Prop Bets

9:41PM ET

The first MLB betting pick I have for tonight on Tuesday, August 9 is in the Los Angeles Angels vs. Oakland Athletics game. Shohei Ohtani is on the mound, so you know it’s going to a fun game to watch. He’s been stellar on the mound recently, striking out a lot of batters…

Angels vs. Athletics Best Bets for Tonight

I’m taking his strikeout over once again. This is a Positive EV bet from OddsJam, and I love the value in it. I think Ohtani will get the job done once again against the Oakland Athletics.

Yankees vs. Mariners Picks, Predictions and Sharp Bets

10:11PM ET

The next baseball betting pick I’m on is in the New York Yankees vs. Seattle Mariners game tonight at 10:11pm ET. I’m betting the strikeouts over on another star player in Gerrit Cole. I think that Cole over 7.5 strikeouts at -116 odds on FanDuel sportsbook is insane value. I locked it in for the maximum that I could.

Yankees vs. Mariners MLB Player Prop Picks for Tuesday

I also played Aaron Judge to hit a home run at +280 odds. Aaron Judge is currently leading the MLB in the 2022 season with 44 home runs. I think these two bets for Yankees vs. Mariners are very sharp!

I have one final betting pick in the Yankees vs. Mariners game tonight. My sharp MLB pick is one DraftKings sportsbook. I’m on the Yes Run First Inning (e.g. YRFI) at +125 odds. YRFI bets (e.g. o0.5 1st inning total runs) are the opposite of NRFI bets.

Giants vs. Padres Prop Bets, Sharp Picks

9:41PM ET

Next, I’m on Brandon Belt to hit a home run in the SF Giants vs. San Diego Padres game. I think that Belt stands a good chance of going deep against Joe Musgrove, the starting pitcher for the San Diego Padres.

San Francisco Giants vs. San Diego Padres Picks

I’m also on the San Francisco Giants 1st half run line at +104 odds on FanDuel. This is a sharp, Positive EV that I really, really like for Tuesday. Neither team has played particularly well recently, and I expect a low scoring first five innings. I think that the Giants +0.5 1H run line is one of the sharpest MLB picks that I found for today.

Juan Soto is no miracle worker, and the Padres have lost five straight games. I think that the Giants will get the job done in the first half of the game.

San Francisco Giants vs. San Diego Padres Bets

As a profitable sports bettor, you should always be line shopping and hunting for value. Finding value in the odds is at the core of Positive EV sports betting. Follow the math, make the money. That’s my motto for sports betting!

Blue Jays vs. Orioles Odds, Betting Predictions

7:05PM ET

The 12th bet I have for tonight is in the Toronto Blue Jays vs. Baltimore Orioles matchup. I’m on the Orioles 1st half run line (+0.5) at +106 odds on FanDuel. The Orioles put up 3 runs in the first inning on Monday, August 8, and I think that they’ll continue to perform well against the Blue Jays tonight.

Blue Jays vs. Orioles Betting Predictions for Today

The Baltimore Orioles are 7-3 in their last ten games. They’re only 1 game back in the AL Wild Card Race. The value in the 1st half run line was clear as well. As seen below from the OddsJam MLB Odds Screen, the Orioles +0.5 was great value. No other sportsbook is offering odds better than -104 on this wager.
