Baseball Help

I'm pretty new to this and I don't understand the lines in baseball. Ex. Houston+116 vs. Cleveland-124. Any help would be appreciated.

You would lay $124 to win $100 on Cleveland. Conversely, you only have to lay $100 on the dog to win $116 if that were the numbers. I hope you understand and that helps you!!!!||cool.gif' border=0>

How would you read that on survivor considering there's no money involved?

Just pick the side you think will win.

He is correct. There is no inherent advantage. you lose or win no money, but Survivor won't put a favorite in baseball more than -1.30 up there...Someone can let me know if I'm wrong. For example: IF Clemens,Pedro,Carpenter)any big time pitcher)etc is pitching and they are laying -2.80 which happens sometimes. You will never see that big of a line on Survivor....You just pick the side

That is correct. They will not put anything up higher than -140 or maybe even -150. Atleast since I have been around, I have not seen it on Survivor. Only on MLB League contests and office pools.

So for baseball you just pick who you think is going to win? Thanks for the help,good luck to everyone

Yeah, pretty much KCB...just who you think is goin to win. GOOD LUCK MAN!

Why did you change your name and did you seriously just start betting baseball in 2007? Jeez, I've been arguing with a child...
