Do You Bet "Action" or "Listed" Pitchers?
I always bet action, if your going to win your going to win and plus I do not bet pitchers.

Given that after a pitching change you have no control over the final price, I can't think of a single good reason to ever bet Action.

I bet listed. I use to bet action, but I put a little more of my capping into the starter. So if there is a change, I want to see what the new match up is going to be.

listed, except with my local, if there is a change it's on me to call and cancel or say if i still want it.
online i only do action if the other probable is still a solid option.

But you don't know what odds you're going to get if there's a pitching change.
How can that possibly be smart betting? |

if i like the team's offense enough and their BP, and the starter might be changed but i know who would be replacing him and can gauge that the line will be not more than a 10 cent swing, i go ahead and take action. it doesn't happen very often, but i can feel it out. |

Why bother handicapping if you bet 'action'?

Right, what's the difference between a line of -110 and -120 anyway?
Serious question -- do you actually like money? |
