NCAA Baseball - Betting Methodology
How To Bet College Baseball
Each week, we give you the projected lines for Top 25 weekend series based on the pitching rotations. Once the starting pitchers are announced, you look for a favorable line from a book of your choosing.
How We Set the Lines
Creating a handicap for baseball all comes down to the value on the pitchers expected to play.
Pitchers are evaluated by prior history and in-season numbers with regards to ERA, FIP and xFIP. Because starts and bullpen innings can change team from team, each projection is based upon the length of the starting pitcher and team bullpen stats.
Finally, defense is much more of a handicap in college than in Major League Baseball. Stellar defensive play is accounted for in the projections of each weekend series.
We give you the projected lines early, you look for a favorable one.
