Orioles vs. Yankees Pick
According to historical MLB betting data, both visiting teams and divisional underdogs have been undervalued in recent years.
To put this in more general terms, we’ve found that the betting market puts a little too much importance on home field, while also not properly adjusting for familiarity between teams.
Think about it — teams that are in the same division play often year after year, so they’re very familiar with the others’ players, coaching and opposing ballparks.
This shortens the gap between good and bad teams and adds value to the underdogs in these situations.
All of this is wrapped into The Action Network’s Visiting Dogs vs. Better Divisional Opponent MLB PRO Betting System, which has produced a profit of 106.7 units since the start of the 2005 season.
Despite the long +215 price (click here for the latest MLB odds) our betting systems suggest that Baltimore is worth the risk tonight against New York.
