With 12 playoff spots now up for grabs, the MLB is postseason field is as big as it's ever been. It's now more than possible for teams barely over .500 to sneak into the MLB playoffs, and once they're in, anything as possible. We saw as much in 2023, when the 84-win Arizona Diamondbacks made it all the way to the World Series.

So which teams will get the chance to play in October this season? There are runaway favorites like the Los Angeles Dodgers, but which underdogs might win their divisions? And which teams could make the playoffs with wild card berths?

Before you make any bets on who wins the 2025 MLB divisions, you need to see who SportsLine expert Angelo Magliocca is backing. Magliocca, also known as Amags, is a rising MLB capper who uses his deep knowledge of baseball to find value on player props, sides and totals. Over the 2022 and 2023 MLB seasons, Amags went 549-450 (plus 63.4 units) on straight plays and parlays while winning an additional 34.6 units on ladder plays before joining SportsLine. He produced those results, in part, by leveraging the strikeout prop market. Amags appears regularly on The Early Edge, SportsLine's popular daily betting show. He's 115-87-1 (+1196.75) in his last 203 official MLB picks on SportsLine!
