Old School 360 Posted March 31, 2021 Thursday is opening day? Anyone have a lock? MGM has a promotion bonus- bet $25 on any game with odds -200 or better - receive a bonus $1 for every home run on opening day, weather your team wins or looses.

Do you know how long it is from the dugout to the field? Plus, there’s 3-4 steps you need to climb just to get out of the dugout. This is not sarcasm.

dain11279 963 Posted March 31, 2021 The Mets win the first game of the year seemingly every season and DeGrom has been absolute dynamite in spring training. I'm assuming they're pretty big favs though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first month is all about what happens after the 5th. Starters are overrated compared to pens. Miami, KC, Oakland, Cubs are all teams I would bang hard early.

Look at the numbers beside each team. Is it a plus or a minus? Arizona +193 --- This means if you wager $100 and AZ wins, you get $193 Atlanta -105 - This means if you wager on ATL, you must risk $105 to win $100 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
