*Odds as of Wednesday morning
The MLB slate for Wednesday, June 7 gets underway with a standalone, early afternoon matchup between the Oakland Athletics and Pittsburgh Pirates.
Considering that the Athletics are the worst team in baseball — and it’s not particularly close — this game isn’t likely to attract much attention from casual bettors, especially with its 12:35 p.m. ET start time.
However, just because a game doesn’t seem interesting on paper doesn’t mean that there isn’t betting value to be had. And that’s exactly why the wiseguys are quietly taking an intriguing position on this matchup.
So with this in mind, lets examine the latest MLB odds for Athletics vs. Pirates on Wednesday afternoon, including the prediction that pro bettors are making.
MLB Prediction: Athletics vs Pirates
According to the Action Network’s PRO betting tools, smart money is quietly flowing on Oakland ahead of today’s matchup.
Action Labs’ Bet Signals are reporting that sharps have steamed the Athletics on multiple occasions thus far, kicking their moneyline down from +160 to +154 at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Steam refers to sudden, uniform line movement across the market that is often the result of bettors with the respect and resources to move odds getting down on the same side of the same game at multiple sportsbooks, all at once.
And finally, this line does vary depending on the sportsbook — DraftKings is at Oakland +155 while BetMGM is +145 — so be sure to shop for the best MLB odds if you’re tailing the wiseguys on Wednesday afternoon.
