    What percentage of betting favs only, do u need to be profitable?
    If you were to bet only money line favorites all season long, what is the generally assumed winning percentage you need to make to break even?

        moneylines in baseball (this year) range from +100 to around -250 with the average moneyline probably around -135 +/-. you do your own math. good luck!

            Find out what is the average of the ML's you bet, then use the odds calculator to find your break even percentage.

            There you go.

            FYI @ -150 you have to hit 60% to break even. But do not let that discourage youB-)
