Is is true MLB is the easiest sport to handicap?

[IrishTim]

I hear from alot of people it is. I did cap this sport a few years ago but didnt really stick with it. Is it a hard sport to pick the winners or is it as difficult as the NBA cuz trust me the NBA is where my game is at and it is extremely hard.

Baseball is probably the sport that has had the most quantitative analysis and sabermetrics applied to it, so in that sense it's easy because a lot of the work has been done for you. But it's hard to grab the good numbers before all the sharps pound the advantage out of the lines.

Thats what alot of people seem to be saying. When you bet on the MLB games, are you betting on the winner straight up or is their a spread involved like basketball/football?

You can take various "run-lines" such as Yankees -1.5, -2.5 or Red Sox +1.5, +2.5, etc. Some books also have "reverse RLs" where the underdog is -1.5 often at +300 or better. Most of the time, the straight ML has the most value.

More opportunites = more money. That is why NBA and MLB are the 2 best to bet on in the long run.
