June was lowest scoring MLB month since pre-97
MLB - Sometimes a hunch can really amount to something. In studying some of the baseball numbers this week, it dawned on me that something was amiss. It seemed as if there was way more lower scoring games than usual, so I dug into the numbers and looked for answers. As it turns out, my hunch was correct, as according to the StatFox Database, the month of June 2009 will go down on record as the lowest scoring regular season month in baseball since at least 1997. Not coincidentally, June also produced the most UNDER results on total bets in that span as well. Does it mean anything going forward?

Bullpens separating MLB good from bad
MLB - With the frequency of wins and losses changing hands in the late innings at a seemingly all-time high in Major League Baseball, it’s more important than ever for a manager to have a solid bullpen to turn to. In that same breath, it’s also crucial for the baseball bettor to know which bullpens are firing on all cylinders and which ones are not. On a daily basis this is hard to gauge, but as is the case with most statistical observation, the cream tends to rise to the top over the long haul, and vice versa. So which bullpens are the best in 2009, and which stats regarding relief pitching have meant the most in the eyes of baseball bettors? Take a look at the numbers three months into the season.
