Sports fans, still holding up? The weather is as dry as the mid-summer sports calendar, with one major exception: The MLB.
Baseball is in a unique era. A golden era? Maybe not quite, but the sport is full of stars at this moment, maybe more at once than ever before. Home-run giants like Aaron Judge, Mookie Betts, and Juan Soto run the show. Pitching studs like Tyler Glasnow, Tarik Skubal, and Zach Wheeler make up a new breed of heaters on the mound. And then there’s Shohei Ohtani who does it all, and damn well.

The betting side of the fence is in a unique era with the MLB, too. It’s more popular (and easily accessible) than ever, with just as much action off the field as on. And there are several ways to bet on the game. You can bet on player props like home runs and strikeouts. Or you can bet the winner or loser straight up.
If you’re worried you’ll lose your money the first time out, there’s good news. DraftKings is running a promotion where users can get up to $300 in bonus bets instantly. With MLB’s All-Star weekend on the horizon, now is a good time to get started.
