Double Header Protocol

[FreeFall]

Can anyone tell me why people "normally" play the losing team in GM2? Whats the stat for this occuring to make sure the lines I'm getting aren't off.

2009 has seen 6 of 11 doubleheaders swept. 2 of 6 been road sweeps.
13 of 25 swept in 2008. 7 of 13 were by road team.
Never bother going any farther back.

yeah so how is there an edge to bet the other team when so far this year it shows that teams sweep it?

50/50

in this situation today i would think you have to take the rockies who have a better pitcher going as well as trying to avoid getting swept in the doubleheader..

the fact that they will most likely lose game 1 makes me like them a little more, idk why.

Yeah I guess I'm not seeing the edge here. I thought the stats were more convincing.
