    Atl and the Mets won and they were big favs. Pads were big favs and lost,but i don't think they're as good as advertised. Even when Tatis comes back,they are a bunch of me,me,me cancers.

    Here's some facts for anyone betting baseball.

    VERY Good to Great teams win 90-105 games a season.

    Teams that stink still Win 55-72 games a season.

    If you also understand that certain days of the week are more often 'dog' days an_wink you won't lose as much

    Not really following MLB as closely, but seems like the Dodgers, Giants, Red Sox, (maybe) Yankees and Astros are all in a rebuilding year.

    Some just haven't realized it yet. 

    Dodgers bullpen looks like a dumpster fire for the last 2 seasons.

    Mods please enforce the "rigged" thread policy and move it to wherever it is supposed to g(the trash is where reasonable people would move it to)  

     

    Seahawk I guess you are one of those that think if a lot of money is one  side it loses  You know how many people go broke wagering that way? 

    Th outcome of a sporting event is never impacted by who, or how much is on it  Period

    @CVSpharm23  On April 12 this was the title of your thread: 

     

    There is nothing easy about betting on baseball, there is a great deal of randomness to each game.   The worst team can easily beat the best team on any given day, and it's NOT unusual.

    @RexR

     Not one of the teams you listed is rebuilding .. Astros are off a championship you think they are starting a rebuild .. Astros reloaded they are best team in the AL on a rebuild lol .. Yankees loaded up .. slow starts for both mainly due to injuries .. Red Sox don’t have a clue what they are doing is their problem .. giants are extremely poorly managed and have a triple A lineup is their problem .. and the dodgers are still the best team in the west lol ..

    There are two teams a cut above every other team In the AL and NL at full strength.. one has built the best culture and farm system for young players to succeed (braves) and the other is Houston .. that Houston team when altuve and Brantley back going to be extremely different Bregman and tucker batting 5th and 6th Peña 7th .. jays and yanks will nip .. someone in another said the rays are a generational team that will win 115-120 games which is laughable.. rays will be hard pressed to break 100 after getting a 13 game head start .. some teams start hot some teams start cold .. if you do a blind test to the orioles roster and rays .. one is clearly better .. and it’s not the 13-1 team 

    mets are second to the braves then dodgers brewers/cards depending on the day .. padres behind ..everyone is so high on a padres team with no identity .. struggling stars and a team that forgot about starting pitching and bullpen .. outside of hader the pen is useless.. and there starting pitching is atrocious..

    The OP is the same kid who 3 days ago asked “When does MLB become hard? This is almost too easy.” It didn’t take very long to find out the answer to his question…..an_roll_laugh
