Judgement Day: Aaron Judge’s Next Team, World Series MVP Odds

All signs point toward Aaron Judge re-signing with the New York Yankees.

But what if the league’s most popular player ditches his pinstripes for a new uni next year? Where would Judge fit best, and which franchise could shell out enough greenbacks?

SportsBetting has set odds for Judge’s next team, and the Top 3 teams with the best chances all reside in the National League.

Aaron Judge Next Team Odds

San Francisco Giants               2-1

Additionally, the sportsbook posted World Series MVP odds Monday, and the favorites should be no surprise.

NBA Playoff Odds 2023: Exploit Oddsmakers’ Overreaction on Line Shifts

It’s easy to overreact to early-season losses in the NBA. But it seems that all of the abhorrent reactions to the Los Angeles Lakers start are warranted.

L.A. dropped to 0-3 following yesterday’s home loss to Portland, and afterward LeBron James said the team’s mood was “s—ty.”

Well, the oddsmakers have taken note of that stench and dropped the Lakers significantly on the NBA Finals odds board. 

Just one week ago, SportsBetting assigned the Lakers with 22-1 odds and reported that 9% of the book’s entire championship wagering handle was on L.A., which was the second-highest percentage after Golden State (18%). 

Now, the Lake Show is well down the list with 33-1 odds, and the drop marks the biggest odds movement through the first week of the season. 

It’s worth noting that the Lakers have the exact same title odds as the Cavaliers.

As far as L.A.’s playoff outlook…the numbers aren’t pointing toward a happy place.

Will the Lakers make the NBA Playoffs? (play-in tournament does not count)

Yes +110

No -140

NBA Playoffs odds:

NBA Championship Odds

Boston Celtics                         6-1

Golden State Warriors            6-1

Los Angeles Clippers               7-1

Phoenix Suns                          12-1

Market report for Saturday.  We look at line moves, public betting trends, betting splits, contrarian info and more.

🏈Biggest bets in terms of percentage of wagers: UTEP, Miami Ohio, Houston

🏈Biggest bets based on percentage of money: Hawaii; Texas State UNDER, Air Force UNDER

🏈Biggest splits. Teams listed have a highest percent of cash compared to bets: Eastern Michigan, Vanderbilt; East Carolina UNDER, LA Tech UNDER, Texas Tech UNDER

There is a belief that contrarian betting is one of the strongest tools of professional gamblers. The books win more often than lose and fading the public is what many sharps exploit as a weapon. Most contrarian handicapper love to fade based on percentage of bets, believing the squarest intel comes from the smallest wagers. Others believe percentage of money is the most effective tool, because they are rooting for the same bets as the always profitable sportsbooks. The above link shows the most successful professional gamblers have a sliding scale. 

The theory is to bet against the public. However, some use the splits and bet on the teams that have a significantly higher percentage of money than bets.

Dramatic Shift in Super Bowl Odds With CMC Trade

The San Francisco 49ers shot up the Super Bowl odds board Thursday night after news broke that they had acquired Christian McCaffrey in a trade with Carolina. 

SportsBetting moved the Niners’ title odds from 16-1 to 14-1 initially, but quickly dropped them to 12-1, and now the odds are even lower.

“We were already pretty exposed in terms of futures liability with the Niners,” Robert Cooper, Head Trader at SportsBetting.ag said. “It seems like McCaffrey will be a good fit for that Shanahan system, and the bets are coming in heavy across the board despite San Fran looking like a very average team so far this season.”

The 49ers are 3-3, and could easily find themselves at 3-4 after this Sunday where they are 1.5-point underdogs at home against Kansas City.

The Niners are favored to take the NFC West and they jumped over Tampa Bay for the second spot in the NFC odds.

Oddsmakers Unfazed By Alabama’s Loss and Struggles; Hooker For Heisman Skyrockets

Alabama may take a little tumble in the eyes of the pollsters, but the people who crunch numbers for a living still see the Crimson Tide as the third-best team in college football. 

The top of the CFP Championship odds at SportsBetting  remained unchanged Sunday morning, despite Alabama losing to Tennessee. 

Last week, Ohio State was the favorite (2-1 odds), Georgia was second at +225 and Bama was a close third at +250.

Heisman Trophy Betting

The Tide have slipped on the latest odds board, but still remain well ahead of Clemson and Michigan (both 12-1). 

The Volunteers jumped from 33-1 odds last week to 16-1 odds, currently.

USC went from 20-1 to 75-1 after losing to Utah.

With the week off, CJ Stroud became an even bigger favorite for the Heisman. Below are the latest CFP and Heisman numbers.
