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.

Bob's Analysis:

Detroit is only hitting .221 as a team against left handers thus far. Cole Ragans owns a 1.42 road ERA in 12.2 innings and backed by a middle of the pack bullpen in the AL. The Royals offense has been struggling to start the season, hitting .207 as a team and Detroit’s Jackson Jobe has found success in his last two starts, 1.63 ERA in 11 innings.
