Baseball and Hockey Sportsbook Lines at SBG Global Sports Betting

Both baseball and hockey use money lines at a sportsbook so all bettors care about is who wins the game. Let’s take a look at baseball and hockey money lines you are likely to see this season.

Sportsbook betting lines on baseball and hockey are easy to understand. Here is a baseball online sportsbook example.

Boston Red Sox             +140
New York Yankees          -160

In this sportsbook example you only worry about the money involved. If the Yankees win and you bet them, you win. You risk $160 for every $100 you want to win or the 16-10 equivalent. You get $140 for every $100 you wager on the Red Sox or the 10-14 equivalents at the online sportsbook. The same thing happens with a sportsbook hockey money line as well. Here is an online sportsbook example:

Detroit Red Wings          +120
Dallas Stars                      -140

If you liked Dallas you would be laying $140 for every $100 you wanted to win or 14-10. If you liked Detroit you would get $120 for every $100 wagered or 10-12. When you are betting baseball and hockey at an online sportsbook always look for the best line. Money lines provide a great way to bet sports.  You don’t have to worry about laying points, backdoor covers, etc.  If your team wins, you win your wager.  Baseball and hockey have money lines every day of their seasons.  You can sometimes find money lines in football and basketball as well, but only on betting lines of about 10 points or less.

As you bet baseball and hockey at a sportsbook remember to get value for your wagers. That can be done by playing into the 20 cent sportsbook line and it can also be done by playing underdogs. Give them a look in both sports and you may be able to find some decent values against the sportsbook betting line.
