    Line movement favoring LAA right now
    Twins are very popular on this board, but I just wanted to note that MIN has gone from -138 to -150, then down to -130.

    Let the lines do whatever they want. The players will speak the truth soon!

      Twins are over rated team. It's better if they don't make it to post season because they will just bend over to the Yankees like past few years.

          i dont think too much of line movement when making a decision on mlb. I do wait out some lines and hope to get something better, but it doesnt change my mind as it would in NFL and NBA.

            tell me this is sarcasm.


            I bet atlanta today at -145, then the line dropped to -135 and closed around -138 on my site. Doesnt look like I lost though, even though it dropped 10 at one point and still closed much lower than what I paid.

              Note that I'm not advocating an LAA play by any means.

              Just an observation.

                I have Twins -1.5 in a parlay. Haren won't get good run support and the Angels pen is hardly better than the Cubs'.

                    Angels have been struggling vs lefties lately. Twins are 10-1 after a loss to a division rival as a fav this season

                              Let wait and see. I think line movement can guide to play on which team if it has a big movement. From +110 to -150, for example, is very favorable to choose.
                              Bookies love to stay on underdog side 'cause they're aware that bettors love to play on favorite side.

                                I've never seen a 60 cent line movement

                                Whether the Twins win or lose tonight my play at -138 is a long-term loser since the line closed at -129.

                                                    Come on CT. Line movement means nothing in my book. Line Movement (if there isn't any change in a specific player's status/weather etc) means a person with huge cash places a wager on Team B. Majority of bets are on Team A but money is on Team B. It means Team B will win? Hell, no. These rich gamblers lose as well..so don't let the line movement effect you.

                                                    Everything is over after I placed my bet. I'm not interested in sharp action/reverse line movement/reverse money action/retroreversal sharp money action etc. Even the sharpest guy in world can be on Team A but it won't effect my decision..

Line Movement (if there isn't any change in a specific player's status/weather etc) means a person with huge cash places a wager on Team B. Majority of bets are on Team A but money is on Team B. It means Team B will win? Hell, no. These rich gamblers lose as well..so don't let the line movement effect you.

                                                        Everything is over after I placed my bet. I'm not interested in sharp action/reverse line movement/reverse money action/retroreversal sharp money action etc. Even the sharpest guy in world can be on Team A but it won't effect my decision..
                                                        There is no perfect system, Sawyer -- hell, if sharps hit at a 60 plus % rate, they'd take it and never look back.

                                                        Line movements are worth considering and definitely worth at least monitoring, but they shouldn't make or break a pick. By in large, I'd rather follow the action of sharp money than Joe Blow, you know what I mean?
