In-depth Look into MLB Betting
Baseball is by far the favorite pastime of Americans, so it is not at all surprising that it also is amongst the most popular options, when it comes to sports betting. MLB betting is loved by both professional and recreational bettors, alike. If you are novice, then it would be best to first understand the best type of bets in baseball to begin with.
Basically, money line, total and run lines are the three major ways of betting the MLB lines. When betting the money line, you simply have to pick a team that you think is going to win the game. Total bet is basically a wager on the total number of runs made by both the teams; here you can choose to bet on over i.e. the total number will fall above the stated number, or under i.e. the total runs will fall below the prescribed number. The totals for most MLB lines are kept between 7 and 12.
Run line is more or less similar to betting against the spread or point spread bet in football or basketball. The only difference in MLB betting is that the team is always favored by 1.5 points, and the money line is used to denote the team that is favored. If no team is favored as per the money line, then either team can be favored.
