MLB Odds, Picks, Predictions: Rays vs. Reds, Rangers vs. Royals Lead Smartest Early Wednesday Bets

Wednesday MLB slates are for afternoon action, including six games getting underway at 2:10 p.m. ET or sooner today.

With the sports calendar slowing as we head into late spring, MLB will become more and more popular among sports bettors.

This also puts more of an emphasis on weekday afternoon action as the opportunities to find betting value are harder to come by.

So, let’s go ahead and examine the latest MLB odds and the Action Network’s PRO Projections to identify Wednesday’s biggest betting model edges.

MLB Picks for Wednesday

*MLB odds and data as of Wednesday morning

Rays vs. Reds Pick

12:35 p.m. ET | BSOH

Right out of the chute, we have a very interesting edge according to the Action Network’s MLB betting model.

Based on live MLB odds, Tampa Bay is a massive -225 favorite against Cincinnati.

However, our numbers suggest that the Rays are overvalued and the smart play is buying back the Reds instead.

We project this moneyline at Cincinnati +169, resulting in a 2.1% edge when compared to the widely-available +185.

PRO pick: Reds +185
