The National League will start the game with the Dodgers’ very own Clayton Kershaw, while the American League will reply with Shane McClanahan, a youthful fireballer.
Although Sandy Alcantara of the Marlins would have likely been the better choice in this situation, it is understandable why Brian Snitker chose Kershaw. Nobody is more at ease on the mound at Dodger Stadium than Kershaw, but expect Snitker to give the ball to Alcantara after Kershaw, maybe for longer than the typical one inning. The real question is which pitcher is going to blow this tomato can of a game wide open?

With the Junior Circuit winning the Midsummer Classic eight times in a row and going 20-3-1 in the previous 24 games overall, the American League has long since crushed the National League in the MLB All-Star game.
Ronald Acuna Jr. will be the captain of the National League team charged with snapping this skid, along with MVP betting favorites Paul Goldschmidt of the Cardinals and Manny Machado of the Padres. Mookie Betts and Trea Turner, two fan favorites from the local Dodgers, will join them.
They have players like Pete Alonso of the Mets, a Home Run Derby favorite, and Juan Soto of the Nationals on the bench. Bryce Harper, Jazz Chisholm, and Nolan Arenado, to mention a few, are just a few of the well-known position players that won't be in the NL. Although both teams have had to replace key players due to injuries, the National League (NL) appears to be more constrained going into this game, especially with regard to their starting pitchers. The NL will be missing Corbin Burnes of the Brewers, Max Fried of the Braves, and Carlos Rodon of the Giants in addition to the ailments already listed. three of the National League's top pitchers this year.

Shohei Ohtani is in charge of the American League on the other side of the diamond. The two-way standout was chosen as a pitcher and hitter for the second consecutive season, and he is the betting favorite to earn AL MVP for the second consecutive year. Along with Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge of the Bronx Bombers, as well as Vlad Guerrero Jr. of the Blue Jays, he leads the AL lineup. There is a lot to appreciate about the trio of young players the AL can field, which includes Ohtani, the Blue Jays' Alek Manoah, and Shane McClanahan of the Rays. You might also argue that the AL has greater star power available off the bench, with players like Jose Ramirez of the Guardians, Corey Seager of the Rangers, and J.D. Martinez of the Red Sox all prepared to fill in when necessary.
That edge in starters means there is some value with the AL as slight underdogs and although betting them to make it nine in a row over the NL could be burnt money. The smart money is being placed on the NL to take the cake, RedAlertWagers.com affiliates have been in contact with some heavy movers and shakers in Vegas that could be responsible for the NL being favored.

MAC’s Top Rated Total Predictions
The Under is 12-3 over the previous 15 Midsummer Classics. Over these 15 games, runs have been scored at a rate of 6.87 per game on average, while double-digit runs have only been scored once. 2018 saw an 8-6 AL triumph that required extra innings. It appears that both bettors and oddsmakers are aware of this pattern. Following a high total of 11 last year, the number started at a more typical 8, before falling to 7.5 this year. The fact that this season is on pace to have the fourth-lowest league-wide batting average (.242) in MLB history and the lowest since 1968 as well as the fifth-highest number of strikeouts per game should also be taken into account (8.35). The public money is jumping the on the under, but sharps are hammering the over since the line drop.
