Best MLB moneyline bets for August 23
5) Toronto Blue Jays: -192
The Toronto Blue Jays are a good bet today despite being well under .500 and only having won six of their last 10 games. They're trending up, but they're still a last-place team. However, they're up against another worse last-place team: the 54-74 Los Angeles Angels.
4) Atlanta Braves: -265
The Atlanta Braves have really good odds today. They get to play against the lowly Washington Nationals, and they have potential Cy Young winner Chris Sale on the mound. That's about as advantageous as it gets, which is why they have some of the shortest odds to win today.
3) Detroit Tigers: -162
The Detroit Tigers have good odds today since they're facing a club much worse than them. In fact, the Chicago White Sox are below just about every team. They're 31-97, so it doesn't matter how mediocre the squad they're facing is. As a result, the Tigers have good odds of winning today.
2) New York Yankees (Safest Pick of the Day): -290
Today's safest pick is the New York Yankees. They are one of baseball's best teams and have won two in a row and six of their last 10 outings, but that's not why they're today's pick. The Yankees have such good odds because they're up against the Colorado Rockies and their .367 win percentage.
1) Oakland Athletics (Bold Prediction of the Day): +110
The Oakland Athletics were our bold prediction yesterday, and they beat the Tampa Bay Rays. Today, they're up against an even better team, the Milwaukee Brewers, but they have a good chance of winning at home and starting a winning streak.
