1. Dodgers (-190) vs. Rockies
8:40 p.m. ET
The first-place Dodgers are fresh off a win on Sunday Night Baseball and draw the Rockies, who conversely sit in the basement of the NL West.
L.A. is naturally the top side in our trackers Monday, with a hefty 89% of moneyline bets rolling in on the favorite (you can check out all the public betting data here).
2. Rangers (-145) vs. Royals
8:10 p.m. ET
Another road favorite getting plenty of support Monday is Texas, with 87% of the 12,000 and counting moneyline tickets.
The Rangers have netted nine wins in the last 10 starts by Martin Perez, including a 6-4 victory over Kansas City on May 10 in which the southpaw coughed up a lone earned run across 6.1 frames.
3. Yankees (-295) vs. Athletics
7:05 p.m. ET
The Yankees walked off the Astros on Sunday behind MVP favorite Aaron Judge. Bettors expect an encore against a much softer opponent.
We've logged 78% of the tickets on New York, despite the number creeping up north of -300 at some shops.
4. Nationals (-145) vs. Pirates
7:05 p.m. ET
Bettors don't mind laying it against the Pirates, who were recently swept across a three-game set by the Rays.
We've tracked 68% of the bets on the Nationals behind right-hander Erick Fedde, who fanned six Pirates in a 7-2 win back in April.
5. Twins (-120) vs. Guardians
7:10 p.m. ET
The fifth and final side with lopsided action on Monday's card is an AL Central clash in Cleveland.
Roughly two-thirds of the tickets are riding with the Twins, who have taken four of the last five at Progressive Field.
