Cubs vs Mets Sharp Betting Prediction for Thursday

Baseball Odds for Cubs vs Mets

*Baseball odds as of Thursday morning

Thursday’s baseball slate is light with just six games on the board.

Additionally, five of the six are matinees, leaving Guardians vs. Astros as the lone night game for baseball bettors.

The Action Network’s PRO betting tools are already breaking down Thursday’s schedule and have identified Cubs vs. Mets as one of the top baseball picks of the slate.

With this in mind, let’s examine how big bets from respected players are already coming in on the Cubs vs. Mets matinee.

Baseball Pick for Cubs vs. Mets

The latest baseball odds for Cubs vs. Mets show New York as the slightest of favorites — -115 as of the time of writing.

And according to our data, it’s the moneyline that’s attracting smart money in this matchup.

Let me explain.

Chicago opened as a +106 underdog against New York and pros were quick to get down on the Cubbies.

Action Labs’ Bet Signals are reporting that sharps immediately steamed Chicago at the opener of +106, driving its moneyline to -105 at most major sportsbooks.

Steam refers to sudden, uniform line movement across the market that is often the result of bettors with the resources and respect to move odds getting down on the same side of the same game at multiple sportsbooks, all at once.

In addition, the Cubs have landed 53% of the early money, but account for just 25% of the tickets, per the Action Network’s MLB public betting data — another data point as to why Chicago’s price has shortened since open.

Further, while the consensus line has shifted to -105, FanDuel is listing Chicago at +100 for those in search of the best possible price.
