    should we bet the mlb unders today in meaningless games?

    I would think that teams are ready to go home, 6 games both teams have missed the playoffs.

    I dont have any data to support this, but it seems like a good idea, maybe someone does.

    I would think the opposite.

    Teams are not going to waste any good pitchers today, especially if they're in the playoffs.

    He's not talking about playoff bound teams. I think his strategy is to bet unders on the games where both teams are playing their last game of the season today.

    I wouldn’t bet any games

    No bet is a good bet

    I didn't just specify playoff bound teams.

    As far as teams out of it.....I know the Mets for one have shut down two of their pitchers including Lugo.

    I know pirates are pitching clay Holmes who sucks but why wouldn't these guys swing at anything that's thrown? You might have a point about better pitchers being shut down but I wouldn't think players are trying to work counts or be selective
