Strategies To Use In MLB Betting When Using Totals

This article takes a look at some MLB total systems that have proved to be profitable over an extended period of time.

1. Starting Pitching – The key statistics you want to look for when breaking down the starting pitching is ERA and WHIP. Finding pitchers who has a high WHIP going up against a strong offense will likely lead to a lot of runs.

2. Bullpen – Well-rested bullpens tend to get the job done and keep the total from going over.

3. Play UNDER in Game With Streaking Underdogs – For this system you must look for bad teams who are playing well.
TIP: If you have a home team that is playing their 6th straight game as aa underdog and has won at least two straight, you have a winner!

4. Find a two and three of a 3-game series , where the first game of the series went over the total and play the under.

5. Weather – If windy, expect more runs.

6. Stadium – Know your stadium and if it is friendly to hitters

7. Play the under in games With Short Money Line and Total of 10+ (many MLB bettors say the game should be from the American League.

8. Rivalries – The under tends to be a strong play when you have two teams that are rivalries.

9. Time of the Season – Pitchers usually tend to be at their best at the beginning of the season, which should have you looking for unders early. I suggest prior games to the All-Star game.

10. Know who the umpires are in a game. Umpires with a small strike zone will often lead to higher-scoring games.
