    Do you like RL's or dogs?
    I was thinking about this yesterday when the Yankees' RL was +120 or whatever. Is it better to consistently take RL's (I know you get burned sometimes, but the same goes for all types of betting) with high-powered offenses, or try to spot play small to medium-sized underdogs?

    Which do you prefer?

    This isn't a direct answer to your question, but I always play the line with less juice taken.

    EG.

    If the moneyline is -170, +150
    And the runline is -1.5 +120, +1.5 -110

    I'll take the runline no matter which team I like, because there is less juice being taken in that game.

          baseball dogs are the best especially if you follow all the teams

            Both are usually solid plays. Can't go wrong with + value in baseball.

                I have a place to play -5 RL's so I have been playing those teams at home with some great success. Basically I just check if the home team is favored (not by -1.5) but by -.5 and go with them. It's given me good success in the wallet and here so there you go. Reduces the juice since they play straight up. Cheers-that might sound really nerdy but what can you do.

                  I really have a strong preference to playing dogs. I play a lot of 1st 5 and game plays with the same team depending on the starting pitching/bullpens, nice to go 4-6 yet still make money.

                    I'm not a big fan of betting rl's... if your team wins by a run its a kick in the gut.
