MLB Odds a Game of Skill
A skilled gam­bler who has placed many bets for a num­ber of years will be able to look at the MLB odds and imme­di­ately know what those dif­fer­ent num­bers mean. If you are a novice gam­bler and you want to try your hand at bet­ting on a base­ball game, you may not know what any of those num­bers mean. It is impor­tant to know how to read the MLB odds before you place your bet. If you do not know what you are doing and you read them wrong, you could make a very costly mistake.

MLB odds, once you under­stand them, are much eas­ier to bet on than other sports like foot­ball or bas­ket­ball because with these sports, you have to use the point spread. MLB odds are set with money lines, not point spreads. For you to win your bet, the team that you wagered on only has to win. The odds that are given will tell you how much money you can win, or lose, on any given game.

When you are look­ing at the odds, a minus (-) indi­cates the team that is favored and a plus (+) indi­cates the team that is the under­dog, the num­ber that fol­lows either the plus or minus tells you how much money you will win or lose, depend­ing on the out­come of the game. For exam­ple, if you see [Dodgers +1.50], [Phillies –1.60] you must bet $16 to win $10 on the Phillies or you must bet $10 to win $15 on the Dodgers. Now that you can read the odds, you can place a bet and win some extra money.
