Welcome to the Pickswise MLB 2023 season betting guide!

It has been nearly 5 months since the Houston Astros beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-2 to win the 2022 World Series, meaning that MLB had a different champion for the 5th straight season following the successes of the Braves, Dodgers, Nationals and Red Sox.

The Astros and Braves are top of the odds list to win this year’s Fall Classic, with the Dodgers, Yankees, Mets and Padres also considered contenders but we’ll have a better idea of what is in store once the new-look teams take the field on Thursday. All 30 teams are in action on Opening Day, with the Astros battling the Chicago White Sox on ESPN at 7:00 pm ET.

Our experts have done the hard work so you have everything you need to bet better and get the right results, analyzing every angle of the new baseball season to bring you their picks for the World Series and their idea of who will win each division and the major player awards.

This is your one-stop shop for everything you need to make the most of your preseason betting and the Opening Day slate. Let’s take a look at what’s on offer in the Pickswise MLB coverage today and throughout the season.
