The Bettor's Box MLB Betting Podcast March 12, 2020

With so much uncertainty out there in the sports world and in the
world in general, it can be a little bit tricky to figure out what
to focus on in a betting sense. Surprisingly, that wasn’t the case
on today’s edition of The Bettor’s Box, our MLB betting podcast.
Host Adam Burke had a lot to talk about and a lot of different
things to say about what he looks for when betting on baseball and
injury updates for Spring Training. Adam discussed which Spring
Training stats matter and which ones have some actual use as we
head into the regular season. There are a few pitchers that stand
out and Adam made sure to mention those and whether or not he
believes what he is seeing. That led to a discussion about
stabilization points and why Adam uses the stats that he does in
order to handicap games, including a discussion on ERA, BABIP, and
LOB% and what makes them stats that are so conducive to betting on
or against pitchers. He also talked about some updated injury
situations for Spring Training and what their potential impacts
could be heading into the regular season. Aaron Nola, Byron Buxton,
Chris Sale, Carlos Carrasco, and Paul Goldschmidt were some of the
names mentioned on that segment.
