I was looking at their records and noticed that they are almost always on the LOSING side of 1 run ballgames.
Record in 1 run games:
Atlanta 0-9
Seattle 1-8
Detroit 1-4
All of the above have played more than 50% of their games as a favorite with Atlanta leading the way at 25 of their 31 games being a favorite.
So what's my point?
If you are like me and hate laying juice but want to back one of the above....play the Runline.
In games that are decided by 2 or more runs:
Atlanta: 16-6
Seattle: 13-12
Detroit: 13-16 (have sucked all year at everything :lol
IMO, if you are going to play any of these household favorites, save the juice and play the RL. If the game is decided by only a run, you are probably going to lose anyway.
