what precisely is ACTION in the contests ?

[Snowball]

in SBR contests. exactly how is the column "action" determined ?
like right now I'm 5th in a weekly mlb, but have bet less games than others yet still have the highest 'action' rating. Is this how much your points swing ?
why is it even there ?

I not sure for Baseball, but in sports with point spreads it the difference. If the Lakers are -5 and they win by 10 you are +5 in the action column.
