Bet MLB futures at FanDuel: New users claim a no sweat first bet

The 2023 MLB regular season is nearing the latter stages, making it an ideal time to make some futures bets.

At FanDuel, new Pennsylvania customers can benefit from a no sweat first bet of up to $1,000.

On top of that, FanDuel has some of the best MLB futures markets in the business. Below, you will find our favorite futures bets to make:

Popular MLB futures bets include World Series Winner, Player Awards, and League/Division Winners, amongst a couple of others. View our best futures bets:

The first leg of this MLB betting parlay is a lock to occur (barring injury). It’s Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. to win the National League MVP Award at -550 odds. The superstar is batting .341 with 26 home runs and 69 RBI. He also has 53 stolen bases as well as the league’s best on base percentage (.422) and WAR (5.9).

The second leg of this parlay is New York Yankees Gerrit Cole to win the American League Cy Young Award at -250 odds. Despite being a six-time All-Star selection and a two-time MLB strikeout leader, Cole has never won the Cy Young. This year, he boasts a 2.75 ERA to accompany the most innings pitched, and a 1.04 WHIP.

The third leg of this parlay is San Diego Padres starter Blake Snell to win the National League Cy Young Award at +300 odds. Snell, who won the AL Cy Young in 2018, is leading the NL in ERA (2.61) and batting average against (.199). He’s also second in strikeouts at 164.

A $20 wager at +562 odds will yield a $112.40 payout.

Now, this may seem counterintuitive to our three-leg parlay that included Gerrit Cole as the AL Cy Young Winner, but Texas Rangers pitcher Nathan Eovaldi to win the award at +15000 odds is too good not to take a flier on.

Eovaldi is set to return from his injury in the coming weeks. Prior to that, he tossed two complete games. He currently sits second in both WHIP (1.01) and batting average against (.208).

A $20 wager at +15000 odds will yield a $3,000 payout.

We definitely like the Houston Astros, but there hasn’t been a repeat MLB champion since the Yankees won three-straight World Series in the late 90s. Sure, the Braves are the current betting favorites, but we’re going with the Tampa Bay Rays to finally hoist the trophy.

The Rays have an incredibly balanced lineup to go along with their three-headed pitching monster of Zach Eflin, Shane McClanahan, and Tyler Glasnow, who will be returning from injury shortly.

Their lineup is led by the likes of Wander Franco, Randy Arozarena, and Yandy Diaz. Although, they receive solid contributions from guys like Josh Lowe, Isaac Paredes, Jose Siri, and others as well.

A $20 wager at +1200 odds will yield a $240 payout.
