Understanding Public and Money

Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Matt's Analysis:

The Tigers were beaten soundly in Milwaukee on Wednesday but two good things at least from it: It was an early game so Detroit got back home early and because it was lopsided, the Tigers didn't use any key bullpen guys. They are 5-1 at home. It's the seventh straight road game without a day off for the Royals (they haven't been off overall since April 3), and their bullpen is taxed after losing 4-3 at the Yankees on Wednesday night. Neither starting pitcher does much for me Thursday (Lorenzen vs. Olson), so more of a situation thing.
