2025 MLB All-Star Game props, odds: Target the Over/Under as AL battles NL
An embarrassment of riches will be scattered throughout the diamond with stars Tuesday night for this year's Midseason Classic. The All-Star Game kicks off with two of the best pitchers in the major leagues this season, as Cy Young candidates Paul Skenes and Tarik Skubal will clash. Surely every player in the dugout will be standing up and leaning against the railing instead of sitting back on the bench. Watching these two pitchers go to work is appointment viewing, and the entire league should be on alert to see these two studs work. The total for this game is understandably low, coming in at seven runs across most of the betting market. It's worth remembering that Skenes and Skubal will potentially pitch for just one inning, and the rest of this game features some loaded offenses.

IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect Still, just one All-Star Game since 2018 has totaled more than seven runs. Is this game going to be a pitcher's paradise going forward? The last offensive showcase we had was in 2018 when the AL defeated the NL, 8-6. Scoring is about on par with years past (4.38 runs per game in 2025 vs. 4.39 in 2024), and no data shows baseballs are any different or that Torpedo bats have any positive offensive correlation. Still, some of the pitchers behind the elite two are missing from action, notably Jacob DeGrom, who will not pitch in the game, along with Max Fried and Garrett Crochet. That potentially leaves us with Clayton Kershaw, who was picked as a friendly gesture more than for merit, to pitch behind Skenes, along with MacKenzie Gore and others. Learn all you need to know about MLB Betting None of these pitchers are bad per se, but there is certainly a drop off. All of these things lead me to a total of over seven runs bet. I suspect that this is a year for an offensive explosion in the All-Star Game.

Yankees' worsening offensive woes threatening to ‘torpedo' their season
Access the Yankees beat like never before Don't miss Greg Joyce's text messages from The Bronx and beyond — he's giving Sports+ subscribers the inside buzz on the Yankees. Sign Up Now You know what feels like it happened during Joe DiMaggio's time as a Yankee? The Torpedo bat controversy. These days the Yankees do not look like they have ahead-of-the-industry pieces of design genius in their hands. They look like they have toothpicks — actually broken toothpicks. For more than two weeks now they have plummeted from arguably the majors' best offense to something that Alvaro Espinoza dragged in. They have stopped launching the ball over the fence with league-best frequency, have become allergic to the clutch hit and are more likely to break into song and dance than construct a rally with small ball.

The latest Mohanlal film directed by Tharun Moorthy is going strong in theatres and is all set to be released in Tamil too on May 9.

In 2022, Binu Pappu had told media that he was working on a screenplay that will be directed by Moorthy and it has come to fruition now. Given that Thudarum has grossed more than ₹130 crore in nine days worldwide, there is a lot of excitement about his next film with Fahadh Faasil.
