<p>The 2025 MLB baseball regular season is nearing its conclusion, with just over six weeks of action remaining before the postseason (Sept 28).</p> <p>With plenty of baseball still to be played between now and then, there has been no shortage of betting opportunities for bettors who enjoy hitting their own home runs.</p> <p>The Los Angeles Dodgers continue to remain the <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/baseball/world-series">strong favourites to win the World Series</a>, with them expected to retain the title they won last year. The Toronto Blue Jays are ahead in the <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/baseball/major-league-baseball">futures market</a> to be the last team to be shut out.</p> <h2>MLB Matches Aug 7-10: Betting Preview</h2> <p>Several matches are scheduled to take place, with teams contesting three-game series between them. We’ve selected some of the most notable ball games to be played over the upcoming weekend:</p> <p>Minnesota Twins @ Detroit Tigers (Thursday, Aug 7, 03:10 AEST)</p> <p>New York Yankees @ Texas Rangers (Thursday, Aug 7, 04:35 AEST)</p> <p>Toronto Blue Jays @ Colorado Rockies (Thursday, Aug 7, 05:10 AEST)</p> <p>St. Louis Cardinals @ Los Angeles Dodgers (Thursday, Aug 7, 06:10 AEST)</p> <p>Chicago White Sox @ Seattle Mariners (Friday, Aug 8, 06:10 AEST)</p> <p>Houston Astros @ New York Yankees (Saturday, Aug 9, 09:05 AEST)</p> <p>Los Angeles Angels @ Detroit Tigers (Saturday, Aug 9, 09:10 AEST)</p> <p>Toronto Blue Jays @ Los Angeles Dodgers (Saturday, Aug 9, 12:10 AEST)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Game 2 of those highlighted in bold will also be played on Sunday, with Game 3 of their respective series taking place on Monday (AEST). These games are possibly the biggest to keep an eye on over the coming MLB weekend.</p> <h2>MLB 2025 Week Betting Predictions</h2> <p>With the Toronto Blue Jays heading to California to take on the Los Angeles Dodgers next weekend in a three-game series, this is where the pick of the betting might be.</p> <p>The two teams have been in contrasting form as of late, with the Dodgers struggling for consistency despite a fast start and being touted as early World Series favourites. They will play a Blue Jays side that is yet to experience a shutout in the second half of the season, and are trending positively.</p> <p>Although a recent series saw them keep the Tampa Bay Rays scoreless, the Dodgers have a tendency to give up runs. The Blue Jays were last kept out in the first half of the year, in an 8-0 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies in June.</p> <p>The ‘moneyline’ for the Dodgers looks like a value bet, as they are 35-21 at home before their 3-game series with the Cardinals. Expect the over in the ‘Total Runs’ market, too.</p> <p>Elsewhere, it could be worth backing the ‘moneyline’ bet for the Tigers when they take on the Angels. They won three of the four meetings earlier in the year, including a 13-1 victory in Game 4. Expect the same again.</p>
