There are plenty of MLB games to bet on today but there are three matchups bettors should be shifting their attention to.

Atlanta Braves vs. New York Yankees (-1.5) @ 7:05 p.m. ET

The Atlanta Braves (11-7) take on the New York Yankees (10-6) in what could be a possible World Series matchup at the end of the season.

The Yankees are favored to beat the Braves by 1.5-runs on the run line. The Yankees have been excellent ATS this season with an 11-5 record. Meanwhile, the Braves are 9-9- when going ATS and are an even worse 1-6 as the underdog.

The moneyline odds at online betting sites are where most bets will likely be going as the odds represent how close this matchup is. The Yankees are listed at -130 odds to beat the Braves who’s +120 odds shouldn’t be avoided by bettors fishing for an upset.

Both the Braves and Yankees feature some of the most potent offenses in the MLB the run total for this game being set at 10 is likely to go Over.

Pick: New York Yankees Run Line (-1.5), Over.

Minnesota Twins (-1.5) vs. Milwaukee Brewers @ 8:10 p.m. ET

The Minnesota Twins-Milwaukee Brewers is another matchup bettors should be honing in on.

The Twins won the first game of the series which ended their four-game losing streak, and they’re favored to build on their winning streak tonight as they’re a 1.5-run favorite.

The moneyline for this matchup doesn’t do bettors any favors as the Twins SU odds are -103 while the Brewers are the “underdog” at -107. The run line is where the biggest return for this matchup lies.

The O/U total being nine for this game means that the Under should be taken as the Brewers don’t score often and the Twins bats have been struggling recently.

Pick: Minnesota Twins Run Line (-1.5), Under.

San Diego Padres vs. Los Angeles Dodgers (-1.5) @ 9:40 p.m. ET

The San Diego Padres (10-7) vs. LA Dodgers (11-6) is an NL West showdown that will likely end up being the best game of the day as the offense will be on display.

Both teams are behind the Colorado Rockies in the division standings and a Dodgers win would give them sole control of the division early in the season. The Dodgers are favored to beat the Padres by 1.5-runs but this will likely be a close game, putting that spread in danger.

Take the -153 moneyline odds on the LA Dodgers tonight as they’ll pull off the win in a tightly contested game. The Padres +141 SU odds shouldn’t be avoided by bettors but they’ve struggled against the Dodgers posting a 2-7 record in their last nine meetings.

The Padres-Dodgers have the bats to score more runs than the 8.5 total set for this matchup so bettors should feel comfortable taking the Over.

Pick: LA Dodgers ML (-153), Over.
