OddsShark MLB Win Totals Odds 2022: Dodgers Aiming High In OVER/UNDERs
In every baseball season, there’s a bit of chaos — teams we expect to win fall flat, and dark horses surge to division titles. That was the case once again in 2021, with the New York Mets and San Diego Padres failing to meet expectations while the San Francisco Giants ended up being the best team in baseball.
Looking to 2022 MLB win totals, we get an idea of where expectations lie across the majors for this season.
Online sportsbook BetOnline Sportsbook has listed the MLB win total odds for 2022 with the 2020 World Series champion Dodgers having the highest win total at 99.5. At the other end of the spectrum, oddsmakers are projecting a rough campaign for the Baltimore Orioles, with their win total set at a paltry 62.5. Lock in a win total futures bet before it’s too late:

The Los Angeles Dodgers didn’t even win their division last year, so why do they enter 2022 with the highest win total?
Despite losing Corey Seager, the Dodgers have real potential to match their 106 wins from a season ago. Adding first baseman Freddie Freeman to one of the best lineups in baseball, the Dodgers positioned themselves to have an MVP candidate like Cody Bellinger (who would be a key contributor on any other team) as their eighth or ninth hitter.
If there’s one question about this LA team, it’s rotation depth. The Trevor Bauer situation is still unclear, and past Walker Buehler, Clayton Kershaw and Julio Urias, the starting options turn to question marks quickly.
When are we going to learn to stop betting against the Tampa Bay Rays?
The Rays have won the AL East two seasons in a row and have won 90 or more games in each of the last three full seasons. Coming off a 100-win campaign, there’s no reason for the Rays win total to be this low.
Tampa should get ace Tyler Glasnow back at some point this year, and has solid upside arms like Shane McClanahan, Drew Rasmussen and Corey Kluber to hold down the pitching staff until then.
While Tampa always finds a way to win without the big names, the Rays have some stars this season. With an AL MVP candidate in Wander Franco, who took the league by storm late last season, the Rays will be a force again in 2022.
The Washington Nationals won just 65 games last year, and that was with half seasons from Max Scherzer and Trea Turner. Despite having one of the best players in baseball, Juan Soto, the Nats are embracing the rebuild and things could get ugly this year.
Nelson Cruz will probably be traded at the deadline, and beyond Soto, Cruz and Josh Bell, the Nats don’t have much on the offensive side. With Patrick Corbin and Stephen Strasburg massive unknowns in the rotation, Washington doesn’t have much on the run prevention side either. This looks like a 60-win team to me.
Out of basically nowhere, the Giants were the best team in baseball last year.
However, this offseason they lost franchise icon Buster Posey to retirement and Cy Young candidate Kevin Gausman to the Blue Jays. Is a drop of over 20 wins in the cards?
Do the Giants get unreal seasons from Brandon Crawford and Brandon Belt again? Do the countless platoons in the lineup work out in 2022? Can Logan Webb head a rotation? This Giants team is full of questions, and it’s hard to tell what way they’re going to fall.
The NL West will be a tough division again this year, with the Padres aiming for bigger things, the Dodgers always elite, and even the Rockies trying to win for some reason. There’s a real chance the Giants win 95 games in 2022, but 75 is also a legitimate possibility.
Betting on MLB season win totals is one of the easiest ways to bet on the long-term results of a baseball season. Every team is assigned a projected number of wins before each season, and all you have to do is bet if that franchise will win more (OVER) or less (UNDER) than that projected total.
For example, if the New York Yankees win total is 85.5 wins and you think they’ll win 92 games, it’s an easy OVER bet for you.

Yes, you can bet on MLB win totals. Season win totals have become quite popular for baseball bettors since betting on win totals allows you to predict how many wins MLB teams will finish with once the regular season concludes, no matter if you’re a fan of those clubs or not.
An MLB OVER/UNDER regular-season win totals wager is when oddsmakers set a specific number (how many games an MLB team will win), and you bet on whether the actual number will be greater or less than the sportsbook’s predicted number. OVER/UNDER regular-season win totals for all 30 MLB teams are set prior to the start of the MLB regular season.
The MLB team that had the most wins in 2021 was the San Francisco Giants. The National League West champions led MLB with 107 wins, one more than the division rival Los Angeles Dodgers (106). The Tampa Bay Rays had 100 wins and the Houston Astros and Milwaukee Brewers both produced 95 wins to round out the top five teams in the majors in wins.

Moneyline betting, spread betting , and betting on the totals are the most popular types of sports bets. But what are they and how do they work?
This is simply a bet on who will win the match, be it a team or an individual. Naturally, some teams or players are superior to others, so as a result, you will usually find the favorite with a negative number whilst the underdog will usually have a positive number attached to it.
Chicago is favored over Green Bay. Bettors of Chicago would need to stake $170 to win $100, whereas those who think Green Bay will win the game will win $150 should they bet $100.
In sports where a tie is possible, moneyline stakes are refunded if that game ends in a tie. It is always worth checking the terms and conditions of your sportsbook to determine their rules in such an event.
This type of bet is known by a number of different terms , depending on the sport with which it is associated.
Hence while it is known as the spread in NFL and NBA, NHL bettors will know this as the ‘ puck line ’, while baseball bettors will be used to seeing it called the ‘ run line ’.
Whatever you choose to call it, the bet acknowledges and caters for the difference in ability between teams by giving the perceived underdog an advantage; a head start if you like. In NFL this will come in the form of points, in baseball it will be runs and in ice hockey it will be goals.
Cleveland is considered to be superior to Tennessee, so in order to level the playing field, Tennessee is given a notional 5.5 points head start by the sportsbook. So, if you bet on Tennessee with a 5.5 point head start, if they win the match or lose by less than 5.5 points, your bet will be successful.
Equally, you may feel that Cleveland will overcome that 5.5 point disadvantage. If you do, Cleveland has to win by 6 points or more for your bet to be successful. Note that by using a half-point in the spread, the sportsbook has ensured on this occasion that there cannot be a tie on the handicap .
This is not always the case. In the example below, where Chicago is a 3 point favorite, stakes would be returned to all bettors in this market were the result to end Green Bay 17-20 Chicago, for example.
The attraction of a bet on the spread is that it has the effect of turning even the most one-sided game into a competitive one. As a result, the odds for both favorite and underdog generally tend towards parity if the line is considered to be accurate.
Note that in baseball and ice hockey, the advantage is always set at 1.5 runs/goals because of the lower scoring nature of these sports.
This bet is as obvious as the name implies. Customers are offered a line which the sportsbook considers to be the median outcome and they are invited to predict whether the result of the game will be above or below that number.
In basketball and football, this line will refer to the total points in the game, in ice hockey it will refer to total goals and in baseball, total runs.
Here is one such example of a totals bet:
Here, the sportsbook has set 10.5 as the total runs in the game and customers can bet under or over that number.

Let's get an important caveat out of the way: These numbers have been picked over for longer and more aggressively than any other season-long NFL betting market. Sharp bettors, and those that consider themselves such, will tell you that because of the liquidity here, there's no longer value to any bet.
While that may be true, in the context of competition for the best prices and closing-line value, it's still worth looking at what teams might exceed, or fall short of, their preseason expectations.
The parity that the NFL hopes for is evident from the top teams needing just 12 wins to go over their total, while the worst teams are still expected to win four-to-five games.
If you want to get nuts fading the Bills , I like the alternative total of under 10.5 (+200). Buffalo could be awesome this year, but if last year's soft schedule actually created misleading metrics , then the Bills could have some issues against a much better slate of opposing offenses. A 10-7 record could keep the Bills in the playoff picture but would cash a 2-1 ticket on the alternative under.
Although many want to treat the Bengals ' breakout season last year as a fluke, Cincinnati went out of its way to fix its main issues this offseason, particularly the offensive line. We've got a ticket on Joe Burrow to lead the league in passing yards , and there's enough room between a 10-win season and what it might take to win the AFC North that I'd rather back the Bengals here than in the divisional markets.
Several things spell trouble on both sides of the ball for the Cowboys , including defensive turnover regression that'll directly impact their overall scoring, an expected drop in offensive efficiency without Amari Cooper , departed interior linemen, and left tackle Tyron Smith 's injury. They're also spending too much money on their starting running back and not enough intellectual effort on their coaching hires. The other three teams in the NFC East have varying degrees of hope, which should amount to fewer wins for Dallas before even looking outside the division.
It's taken me two months to come to terms with it, but I like the Texans this year. I believe offensive line play is the key to success in pro football, and Houston's rebuilt unit will run-block for Dameon Pierce and pass-protect for Davis Mills . Maybe the defense isn't ready for a leap, but I'm here for a five-win season with even more point-spread covers as an underdog in a losing cause.
Include me in the long line of bettors who have talked themselves into the Kevin O'Connell era. Kirk Cousins and the offense won't need their usual list of excuses, and the defense will improve. A Week 1 win over the Packers will go a long way to settle this bet on our side.
New Orleans trading C.J. Gardner-Johnson aligns with our assertion that the Saints are sneaky deep on defense. I may be the last man on Earth who believes in Jameis Winston , but all I'm asking for is a 9-8 season from a veteran team that could be good on both sides of the ball.
A plus-money price to fade Pete Carroll and the slow dissolution of the Seahawks ? Sure!
