Bet Labs' Tigers vs Rays Best Bet: System Play on the Under
By Bet Labs
This system looks for spots in which both teams have solid win percentages (51%–100%), but the public is heavily favoring the over (≤35% under bets). In matchups between winning teams, sportsbooks often inflate totals due to perceived offensive capability. However, these teams also tend to have stronger pitching, which leads to a profitable edge on the under.
This season, this system has hit on 54% of its picks and generated a 2% ROI. Overall, it is 1792-1560-152 (53%).
