    Clarification/Feedback on "action" MLB wagers
    Generally speaking, do books keep the existing line or give you the new line on the teams you selected.

    For example, Prior line with pitcher A/B for a team is -120. After a pitching change occurred the line goes to +110.

    Does the original line stand?

    here ya go pal



    "Also, what many sportsbooks will do if you choose “action” and there is a pitching change is they will actually void your original wager, post new odds on the new pitching matchups (and when there is a late pitching change the odds are always way out of whack) and then recalculate your bet based on the new odds.
    So if you play the Mets for $50 at +120, but their opponent’s pitcher is a late scratch the books can post the Mets at -170 and alter your $50 bet."

        These are small bets I am making where I am testing the market...action is default but you have a good point.
