What Is An MLB Computer Pick? 

MLB picks are bet suggestions based on our computer's assessment of the game. Tons of betting data goes into a computer pick, including pitching matchups, injury reports, analytics, and even recent betting trends.

How To Use MLB Computer Picks

You can use the tables above to help with your bets during the MLB season. The first section includes free, computer-generated picks for daily Major League Baseball games. Baseball bettors can choose to follow the computer, fade the computer, or simply use our computer picks as one element of their betting strategy.

This page also tees up access to deeper betting trends. For example, if a club's runline is favored, you can check their ATS trends, potentially opening up some quality underdog bets.

Moneyline

This is the most common and easiest wager for a bettor to make when it comes to MLB picks. Basically, to win an MLB moneyline pick, you just have to choose which team will win the game.

It’s simple – if you bet the White Sox moneyline over the Red Sox and Chicago wins, you win your bet.

Runline

The runline is another name for a point spread that you may be more familiar with in NBA and NFL betting. A point spread varies in the NFL and NBA from as little as 0.5 points up to double-digit spreads. A baseball runline is almost always a 1.5-point spread.

The favorite will be -1.5 while the underdog will be +1.5. At the end of the game, if you take away 1.5 points from the favorite or add 1.5 points to the underdog and they end up winning the game, you win your MLB pick against the spread.

Totals (OVER/UNDER)

Another common wager across all sports is on the total, which is a bet on the total runs scored in the baseball game. You are simply choosing whether the final score will be OVER or UNDER that total. Betting the OVER/UNDER on a matchup is a great way to get started in MLB score predictions.

More MLB Picks & Betting Tools

First Five Innings MLB Picks

The above options – moneyline, runline and OVER/UNDER – can also be placed on the first five innings of a game rather than the full game. Many experienced bettors will use this approach because typically, this will take bullpens out of the equation and make your job researching the game easier. After all, you can just focus on the starting pitchers. Check out our first five betting report to see how teams perform in this type of wager.

MLB Picks And Parlays

If you want to combine multiple games into one mega wager, you may consider doing a parlay bet. A parlay is when you pick two or more MLB games on one single betting ticket, which will increase the payout of your bet.

But it also comes with more risk, as each of those MLB picks must hit for your ticket to pay out. Our parlay calculator is a great tool to find out what your potential payout would be.

MLB Player Props

Player props are a great way to hone in on an individual matchup for a game. These types of wagers will be individualized for a player: Will Mike Trout hit a home run? Will Gerrit Cole get seven strikeouts? Will Jacob deGrom allow two earned runs?

You simply choose whether this outcome will happen or not. Keeping up to date on daily pitching matchups and batters on a hot streak can give you a huge boost when placing player prop bets.

MLB Futures Picks

Lastly, prior to the season and even throughout the season, you can place futures bets on all the long-term awards and outcomes. You can lock in an MLB pick on who will win their division, which squad will win the World Series, or even who will hit the most home runs.
