MLB Betting Lines
Take a look at some of the main MLB betting markets we offer at Betiton Canada.
- Moneyline: Moneyline betting is about placing a wager on which team will win a game. The final score doesn’t matter here. The focus is on who wins. This is one of the simplest forms of MLB online betting that you can choose at Betiton.
- Run Line Betting: This is similar to spread betting available in other sports betting. The run line is commonly set at 1.5 runs by most bookmakers. You can bet whether or not a team will cover that run line. This means that for your selected team to cover the -1.5-run line and win the bet, it must win the game by two or more runs, and the underdog has to lose by less than two runs or win the game to cover the +1.5.
- Totals: In MLB betting online, you can bet on the totals of a game rather than picking a side is another option that you can go with. For this, the bookmaker makes a projection on the total number of runs both teams will make in a game. You can either bet that the combined runs of the teams will be over or under the set total of the sportsbook.
- Propositions: These are wagers you place on whether or not a specific player-based stats or performance will happen, or you bet on one team to achieve something such as a team that will score first.
- Futures: An MLB future wager is betting on a baseball event that will be decided in the long term. At Betiton, you can bet on which team you think will win the World Series, which pitcher will make the most saves in the regular season, the player to make the most hits of the regular season, and so on.
- MLB live betting: At Betiton Canada, we strive to offer a great MLB live betting experience for your online wagering to be as much fun as possible. Under the sports category, simply locate the IN-PLAY button on the upper left side of the homepage. You can click on it to bet on any live MLB match that you like.
What Is the MLB?
Major League Baseball (MLB) is one of the big hitters when it comes to baseball tournaments in the United States of America and Canada. The MLB comprises of 30 teams which are split evenly into the National League (NL) and the American League (AL).
The National agreement between the NL and AL in 1903 makes this major professional tournament one of the oldest in the world. The winning teams of the NL and AL compete in the annual World Series. The Toronto Blue Jays of the AL’s East Division is the only Canadian MLB team while the remaining 29 clubs are from the United States.
American League Baseball Teams
The AL is made up of 15 competing teams that are divided equally into three divisions (East, Central, and West). Since the Word Series began in 1903 following the peace agreement between the two leagues, AL teams have won the most Commissioner’s Trophies with 68 combined titles as of 2024. The New York Yankees (formerly the Baltimore Orioles/New York Highlanders) are the most successful MLB franchise of all-time with a record 27 World Series titles. They’ve also won 21 AL East Division honors and 41 American League trophies, including both honors in 2024.

National League Baseball Teams
NL teams have won a combined 52 World Series titles of the 119 annual championships contested from 1903 to 2024. This number includes the aforementioned 2024 triumph by the LA Dodgers, who defeated the Yankees 4-1 in last season’s World Series. The NL was founded in February 1876, to replace the National Association of Professional Baseball Players (NAPBBP). This had previously existed from 1871 to 1875. Just like the AL, the NL has 15 member teams who are distributed equally between three divisions: East, Central, and West. The Dodgers have also dominated the National League since its inception, winning 23 West Division titles and 25 overall.

2025 MLB Season
The regular 2025 MLB season will commence with the Tokyo Series in Japan. This will represent the latest installment of the MLB’s World Tour, as the Los Angeles Dodgers take on the Chicago Cubs at the Tokyo Dome. The regular season will run for a little over six months, during which time the MLB Draft and All-Star Game are also scheduled to take place. Then comes the MLB postseason, which includes both the playoffs and the World Series.
⚾ MLB Spring Training | February 20th, 2025 |
📅 MLB Regular Season | March 18th, 2025 – September 28th, 2025 |
⚾ MLB All-Star Game | July 15th |
📅 MLB Postseason (Playoffs) | September 29th, 2025 – TBC |
⚾ MLB Draft | July 13th, 2025 |
📅 MLB (World Series) Finals | TBC |
Betting on the MLB Spring Training 2025
When it comes to spring training, you’ll find a hugely restricted range of MLB betting lines. This is because spring training matches receive much less coverage than regular and postseason games, especially when it comes to props and live wagering.
However, Betiton provides competitive moneylines for selected spring training matchups. In some cases, we may also release totals and first five innings odds ahead of the opening pitch, with this most common prior to the highest profile games.
Betting on the 2025 MLB Regular Season
When engaging in MLB betting online, the regular season unlocks the broadest selection of lines and markets. In addition to moneylines and totals, you can also engage in run line betting across all MLB matches, enabling you to back wagering favorites at enhanced odds.
When it comes to run line betting, 1.5 runs is the most popular pick. For example, you may back the Los Angeles Dodgers to defeat the unheralded Toronto Blue Jays with -1.5 runs, usually at extended odds. However, for this bet to be successful, the Dodgers will have to beat the spread and win by two runs or more!
When betting on MLB during the regular season, you can also wager on the outright winners of the American and National Leagues respectively.
2025 MLB All-Star Game Betting
Here at Betiton Canada, we’ll also offer odds on the 2025 All-Star Game. You can access a full range of MLB betting lines online ahead of the All-Star encounter, including moneylines, totals, run line betting and a huge selection of team and player props.
The American League team are the defending champions, having prevailed 5-3 in 2024. They’ve also dominated the All-Star head-to-head since 1996, winning 22 of the 27 matches contested.
This sequence includes an impressive run of 10 victories in 11 All-Star games since 2012, although the composite National League side did prevail 3-2 in the summer of 2023.
Betting on the MLB Playoffs 2025
As usual, a total of 12 franchises will compete in the 2025 MLB postseason (or playoffs). Here at Betiton CA, you can wager on every single postseason game, with moneylines and outrights particularly popular among bettors as the season progresses as follows:
- Wild Card Series: The eight lowest ranked qualifying teams will compete in the ‘Wild Card’ Series. This will include four American and four National League franchises. Each of the four ties here will be contested as a best-of-three series.
- Division Series: At this point, the two highest ranked teams from both leagues will enter the postseason. These four sides will play the winners of each Wild Card Series matchup, with each tie contested as a best-of-five encounter.
- Championship Series: The Championship Series sees the remaining four teams compete for their respective league titles and a place in the showpiece World Series. The two remaining AL franchises will do battle in one match, while two surviving teams from the National League will also contest a best-of-seven series.
- The World Series: The World Series will determine the ultimate MLB winner in 2025. This is also contested as a best-of-seven series, in which the American and National League winners go head-to-head. Although the precise date for the 2025 World Series has yet to be confirmed, it’s usually scheduled for the end of October or early November.
As postseason matchups are usually close and keenly contested, you can also look to create value by engaging in totals betting. Run line betting is also popular during the playoffs, as are team props (such as the winning margin in a particular game and the total number of home runs scored).
During the playoffs, you may also want to construct parlay bets. This enables you to combine multiple picks into a single wager and bet at significantly higher odds. For example, you could pick the four winners of the initial Wild Card series matches, or even incorporate totals and run lines.
MLB Draft
The MLB draft is one of the most important dates in the baseball calendar. This is the primary mechanism through which Major League Baseball franchises are assigned amateur players, usually from high schools and colleges. Players may also be signed from amateur baseball clubs.
In 2025, the MLB draft will commence on July 13th. The draft will be hosted in Atalanta as part of the All-Star week festivities, while it will feature 15 teams with supplemental round picks (as opposed to just 14 in 2024).
2025 MLB Finals Betting
Wagering on the World Series represents the pinnacle of MLB baseball bets. Not only can you wager on the outright winner of the World Series, for example, but you can also access moneylines on each of the individual matches.
Prop betting is also demonstrably popular when wagering on the World Series. For example, if the LA Dodgers once again reach the final in 2025, you may bet on designated hitter Shohei Ohtani to record 3+ hits during a World Series match. He recorded 197 hits and 54 home runs (second to only Aaron Judge) in 2024.
When picking the outright winner of the 2025 World Series, betting early can unlock higher value odds. This is due to the number of potential winners that you’re able to choose from.
2025 MLB Winner Odds
As we’ve touched on, the LA Dodgers are the favorites to win again in 2025, after their superb 4-1 victory over the New York Yankees last season.
The Yankees have seen their outright odds drift to 9.95 ahead of the new campaign, while their city rivals the New York Mets have emerged as the second favorites at 8.80. The Atlanta Braves, who exited during the Wild Card Series in 2024, can be backed at around 9.00.
🍁 MLB Team (League) | 📊 Winner Odds | 🏆 Titles Won |
LA Dodgers (NL) | 4.65 | 8 |
New York Mets (NL) | 8.80 | 2 |
Atlanta Braves (NL) | 9.00 | 4 |

MLB Betting Tips by Betiton Canada
Check out our goldenMLB betting tips that you may consider before making your betting decisions.
- Examine the starting pitchers. When betting on MLB, keep in mind that the starting pitcher can be a massive factor in deciding the outcome of a game.
- Consider the MLB betting stats of hitters versus pitchers. Also, check their right and left splits. Perhaps the team you intend to bet on has an excellent record against right hitters but struggles against lefties. This can help you make better decisions.
- Make sure to track the starting lineups and injury list. Knowing which players are starting for the teams or which key players are ruled out due to injuries can give you a strong idea about a game’s most likely outcome.
- Consider the weather conditions. The temperature, wind speed, humidity, and snowfall are all factors that can have a significant impact on MLB games. For example, the trajectory of a ball experiences little resistance in hot weather as compared to when the weather is cold.
- Consider the MLB public betting trend before placing your bets but remember that the public is not always right.
