In my Yankees vs. White Sox Field of Dreams Game PRO betting report, I wrote, “Terrible jokes aside, tonight’s Field of Dreams Game between the New York Yankees and Chicago White Sox should draw plenty of eyeballs, and with extra eyeballs often comes recreational betting action.”
The Action Network’s MLB public betting data backs this up as Yankees vs. White Sox is already the most bet game of the day with plenty of time to pile on considering its 7:15 p.m. ET start.
But let’s not forget that Thursday’s MLB slate includes 14 games, each of which pays the same for the winning bets as the Field of Dreams Games will.
And while recreational bettors are keying in on Yankees vs. White Sox, sharps are quietly loading up on Thursday’s biggest betting edge of them all: Blue Jays vs. Angels.
