Baseball Odds & Lines

Online baseball betting is quite similar to any other sports betting. You just have to look for a bookmaker that offers rich baseball lines and high baseball odds. Both of those are equally important and you can satisfy with just high odds or good lines. You would want to have multiple betting options with high odds on each one of them. Speaking about betting options, there are several wager types that can be placed on baseball. We will cover every important betting option in this article.

MLB Betting Online

First of all, there are 2 types of betting in general. Regular betting and online betting. Online betting usually comes with better baseball betting odds and that is why you should choose it. When it comes to MLB, both MLB betting lines and odds are better online. It comes with more options and you can place bets without leaving your home. Another interesting thing about online betting is the live betting option. We all know that it is easier to predict what will happen next in the match than to predict it before the match even starts. With the live betting option, you can do just that and bet during the game. The odds change constantly so be careful. With that being said, we can conclude that online betting is the future and you should definitely switch to it if you already didn’t.

MLB Moneyline

Moneyline is the simplest bet you can place on baseball. You simply chose a team you think will win and you bet on them. Some bookmakers may call it 2-way betting because there are only 2 possibilities, in other words, there is no draw. However, we all know that in real life there is an actual possibility for a draw in a baseball match due to bad weather or darkness. In case that happens, the bookmaker will simply refund your bet or set the odds at 1.00 in case of multiple bets on a single ticket.

Betting MLB Totals

Totals betting is actually betting on over or under. MLB totals are nothing other than betting on the number of runs scored by one team during the match or combined number of runs scored by both teams. The bookmaker sets the margin and you can bet on MLB over or under. For example, if the margin is 7.5, you just have to decide will the number of total runs combined be over or under 7.5 and that it. It has nothing to do with who will win the match or whatsoever.

Baseball Futures

Like every other sport, baseball also has the betting option of so-called futures. It means betting on something that will happen in the future. In baseball, it does not mean betting on a team to win a match in future, but it refers to the more distant future. For example, you can bet on one team to win the world series or national league. It is important to mention that future bets usually come with high odds.

The Runline

Baseball online betting also supports MLB run lines. Don’t get confused, this type of betting can also be called handicap betting or point spread betting. Baseball match consists of 2 teams that play against each other. There is always one favourite team and one underdog team. Let’s imagine the margin is set on 1,5. If you want to bet on the favorite, that means a favourite team has to win that game with at least 2 runs. On the other side, if you bet on the underdog, they have to win the game outright or lose the game by less than 1 run
