Mets vs. Nationals Picks, Best Bets & Predictions August 3: A Low Scoring Affair

Mets vs. Nationals Profitable, Sharp MLB Bets for August 3

4:05pm ET

Alex here, and I’ll be sharing my top bets! So, yeah, you’re going to want to tail these bad boys 😉 Let’s dive into the best of the best betting picks for Wednesday, August 3.

I’ll be giving out my top baseball plays in this sharp sports betting preview. I’ll be going through my sharp picks and predictions for the New York Mets vs. Washington Nationals game on 8/3/22. Assuming no delays, this game will start at 4:05pm ET.

Sharp action & betting volume has been coming in on the Washington Nationals, with 56% of all bets coming in on them so far. It’s a little surprising in my opinion…

The total is currently set at nine total runs and juiced towards the over. The over 9 total runs is at -120 on DraftKings sportsbook (e.g. DK). The under is at +100 odds on DK, which is one of the most popular online sportsbooks in the United States. DraftKings just launched in Ontario, Canada as well.

Of course, odds can change at any time, so make sure to use OddsJam to get the best line. The concept of odds changing is called line movement in sports betting. Different locations usually have various bookmakers available, so you could possibly get a better price than the odds on DraftKings.

Better odds = more money in your pocket. It is critical to line shop and get the best odds on all of your bets if you want to make money sports betting.

After I graduated from Stanford University, I decided to start OddsJam to make data-driven tools for sports bettors. OddsJam will make you a lot of money if you invest into your betting education, so give our betting tools a try!

The run line is currently set at 1.5, which is common for an MLB game. You’ll rarely see an MLB team that is a 2.5 point favorite on the run line. The NY Mets are favorites in this MLB game. They are -250 moneyline odds on DraftKings. It’s no shocker, but the Washington Nationals are the underdogs, sitting at +210 moneyline odds on DraftKings.

The Washington Nationals will look to pull off the upset W in this outing.

Again, all prices (e.g. lines) in this betting preview were from DraftKings sportsbook. DraftKings is one of the largest sportsbooks in the U.S. They began as a DFS company, but their online sportsbook launched in New Jersey first in 2018 and became quite popular. This online bookmaker has a $1,000 deposit bonus for new sports betting customers, as well as tons of awesome promos and bonuses.

Official Pick: Back the under 9.5 total runs at -105 odds. I played this for one unit, as seen in my betslip below. This bet was on DraftKings sportsbook, and I found it on the OddsJam Positive EV Betting Tool.

Hopefully you’re able to tail this awesome MLB bet for 8/3/22. I think I have one of the top baseball betting picks on DraftKings sportsbook for today.
