In the long grind of the MLB season, finding strategic edges through betting systems can make a significant difference. One such system is "Avoiding the Sweep," which targets teams in a three-game series who have lost the first two games. This system leverages the added motivation and sense of desperation for the trailing team, while potentially taking advantage of complacency from the team that has already secured the series win.
Understanding the System
The "Avoiding the Sweep" system has been INSANELY profitable this season, with a record of 131-106, yielding +33.75 units. The system looks for teams that are priced between -200 and +200, facing a sweep in a 3-game series. The logic behind this system is straightforward yet effective:
Desperation Factor: Teams facing the prospect of a sweep often play with heightened intensity and urgency. The pressure to avoid a sweep and salvage some pride can bring out their best performance.
Complacency of Winning Team: The team that has already won the first two games may experience a slight drop in intensity. Knowing they have already secured the series win, there might be a subconscious relaxation, which can give the trailing team an edge.
