know already adidas superstar fiori di ciliegio , you could probably have guessed that the major
betting sports are football and basketball. Lets turn our eyes to a betting sport that is
often overlooked but can be very valuable: baseball. Theres nothing better than kicking
back with a cold one, whether at home or at the stadium, and watching a ball game. Its
relaxing, enjoyable, and it can be (if done right), profitable.
Why bet on baseball? There are plenty of good reasons. Unlike other sports, there
is baseball on practically every night during the late spring, all summer and into the
autumn. Not only does this make for more action, but it also minimizes the impact of
injuries. A baseball player can be sidelined for ten games and the team will barely miss a
beat. A long season gives you a chance to track a teams progress and have a better
snapshot of where they are at any given time, and whereas one off game in football
accounts for 1 16 of a season, an off game in baseball is barely a blip on the radar. A
poor performance in one game can completely alter a football teams psyche, and raise
serious questions about their character adidas superstar fiori di loto , while for a baseball team, off nights in baseball
are expected and can often be predicted (the last game of a long road trip, the game after
an emotional win, etc).
Unlike other sports, there will be baseball games going on in the early afternoon,
mid afternoon, late afternoon, and into the evening, depending on which time zone you
live in. It is not uncommon for guys to phone in a wager from work, and be sitting at their
desks constantly refreshing an online gamecast or listening to the radio with headphones.
In short, wagering on baseball can add excitement to almost any day, at almost any time
of that day.
There are plenty of financial reasons to bet baseball as well. Simply put adidas superstar con fiori , there is
no lower vig in sports. The dime line in baseball has to be the best deal in all of sports
wagering. Honestly, check it out. At GoSportsbet we offer the dime line for every
game (you risk $110 instead of $120 to win $100), and for day games that are shown on
ESPN, we offer a 5 cent line you risk just $105 to win $100. Whereas in other sports,
the houses take is in the 4-5% range, with baseball, it is roughly 1-2%, which is really
incredible value. Finally, in what other sport can you, not the bookies, impose conditions
on the bet? (For instance, which pitchers start.) Why would sportsbooks make all these
concessions superstar schizzi di colore , you ask? Because its the summer. Theres nothing else going on (unless
you count the WNBA). In order for the sportsbooks to get any business, its going to have
to be attractive to bettors.
Now that weve established that baseball is often overlooked and has the potential
to be very lucrative, lets look at how to approach a wager on baseball. It must be noted
that baseball is one of the most difficult sports to handicap accurately on a consistent
basis. Why? Simply because there is far less disparity between teams. The Phoenix Suns
won more than 75% of their games last season. The Pittsburgh Steelers lost one game out
of 16 for a 94% win percentage. Last season the St. Louis Cardinals won less than 65%
of their games but were the best team in baseball. Conversely, the worst team in baseball
still won 32% of their games, while the worst basketball and football teams won just 16%
and 12% of their games, respectively. Much closer competition means a much harder job
for handicappers.
There are two schools of thought when it comes to what one should emphasize
when analyzing baseball: pitching and hitting. Lets begin by examining pitching.
Pitching is the only part of the game you can control. Because pitching match-ups are
posted well in advance, you know who will be on the mound for (hopefully) the majority
of the game. Having the most potent offence in the world doesnt do you any good when
your pitching staff is letting the other team clobber hits all over the ballpark (for
reference, see Yankees, The New York). While a manager might decide to sit the star
position player on your team at very little notice, you can be confident that for at least a
few innings, you know who will be pitching and can judge accordingly. Also, while a star
hitter might get four or five at-bats during a game scarpe adidas fiori , a pitcher will get to see everyone in a
lineup.
Hitting has its advantages too, though. Many professional bettors feel that because
so many linesmakers focus on pitching, any advantage to be had in a pitching match-up
will have been already found and reflected in the betting line. Why not look for an edge
in an area that bookies pay less attention to? Dont get the wrong idea pitching is
extremely importantsome professional bettors say pitching is responsible for as much
as 80% of the outcome of a baseball game. But if analyzing pitching lets you know which
games are potential bets, analyzing hitting might help you decide what to bet on.
Still other professional handicappers weigh emotional factors most heavily when
deciding how to analyze a baseball match-up. Ive mentioned a few above: is the team at
the end of a long road trip? Have they just come off an emotional win the night before?
Do the two teams have playoff history or a traditional rivalry? These are all things to
consider.
