    Do you think some teams will start to pack it in until the All Star break?

    I know in the NBA some teams, typically the ones who have a nice lead in their respective divisions will let off the throttle before until the all-star break. Can we say the same for MLB too? Maybe not yet, but lets say maybe that last week of baseball? This is obviously important to know from a betting standpoint, so it'll be interesting what others think.

    MLB players for the most part
    will give 100% every game.

    However you may see some managers calling up guys from the minors and giving regulars a rest...

    Mostly just making sure they dont over work their players and cause their pitchers to get dead arms

    But also i dont look at the standings everyday but i know their are a lot of tight races... i cant think of one team who has a huge lead in their division.

    I've been riding Locke and Corbin hard this year.... but every year their are a handful of pitchers that just cant do anything wrong before all-star break but the dog days of summer tend to make some dogs start barking.

    And it wouldnt surprise me if several aces hit a rough patch in Mid July- August
