    MLB Spring Training Totals Grading :|

    With the new rule that

    "Games that occur from February 27 (or 28) through March 13 may be shortened to seven-inning games or five-inning games upon mutual agreement of both managers. Games that occur on or after March 14 shall be nine-inning games (and, upon mutual agreement of both managers, can be shortened to seven-inning games)"

    it'd be nice if we knew ahead of time, and had some consistency to the grading of spring training totals.

    I know Bet105 posted "MLB EXHIBITION - ALL WAGERS HAVE ACTION REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF INNINGS..." but places like 5Dimes (or their sister sites) have graded the same wager differently depending on what you used to put in the bet (default, Prime, or Ultra).

    Great thread. Before placing any Mlb spring training bets? KNOW your books rules first
    Many of the early games only going 6-7 innings at most

    So far, I think Bet105 is the only one that has addressed this.

    Keeping track of what was Honored/Cancelled.

    Pre-game:
    Bovada Cancelled
    5Dimes (Default) Cancelled
    5Dimes (Prime) Honored
    Bet105 Honored
    Betnow Honored

    Live bets:
    Betonline Honored
    Bovada Honored
    Heritage Honored
    Bet105 Honored
    5Dimes (Ultra) Honored

    I wouldn't be surprised if some books update this later tonight (for their benefit).

    Heritage is A+++++++ for the Mlb spring training games. No better book to bet with, when you find the EDGE!

    Heritage, unfortunately, didn't offer any pre-game lines. They, like the rest of books, did offer a limited number of live games though.

    I cleaned up there today. I did not like the limits, but found the games I liked. Limit bet them, and then went "parlay mania"

    I love guys that bet these early early spring training games, like they have some of angle!

    unless it's an angle of a book honoring totals on short games

    you are throwing coin flip $ into high high juice
