The Power Rankings Tool is once again finding value in a bad baseball team for our MLB betting picks.

There is a similar scenario with the Nationals looking like the lone value and one of the best MLB bets today. With football season about to start, there are free projections for season long player props up with the best bets and odds. Check this out to get in on some NFL betting action.
Best MLB Bets Today: Expert Betting Picks & ROI Predictions
Washington Nationals (+185) at Atlanta Braves — 8.2% Expected ROI
According to the Power Rankings Tool, the Nationals win this game 38% of the time. While this is not a great chance of victory, it is value for MLB betting purposes. With a 38% chance to win, the fair line for this game is Nationals +162. This is what creates the slight ROI in the bet. There is not much positive to say about Sean Nolin, but Touki Toussaint is struggling a bit. In his last three outings he has combined to strike out just five batters. At the very least, Toussaint is not worthy of getting favored by this much in any matchup.
Boston Red Sox vs. Tampa Bay Rays Under 10 runs — 12.1% Expected ROI
This is the one total of the day that stands out from the night slate. Recent games between the Red Sox and Rays have featured a ton of scoring, leading to an inflated total. Tampa Bay was able to do some damage in the last couple of games in tough matchups against Eduardo Rodriguez and Chris Sale. Tonight the Rays face another strong starter in Nathan Eovaldi. He is quietly having a great season and is second in the American League in WAR behind Gerrit Cole. Eovaldi should stop the bleeding today, and he is pitching consistently well this season. He has gone over a month since he last allowed more than three runs.
