MLB Baseball Picks: Worst Home Teams To Wager On – June 1st 2010

They say that home is where the heart is, but that just hasn’t been the case for a few teams across baseball this year. There are a lot of strong teams in this week’s “Who’s Not,” so watch out for these MLB betting squads that are killing your bankrolls!

Season Standings
1: Milwaukee Brewers (8-16, -$1,135) – And to think that this is an improvement for the Brewers! Milwaukee is simply just drowning in its own pitching miseries at this point, particularly at Miller Park. MLB betting fans are just getting crippled laying chalk with the Brew Crew on a regular basis at home, and until the corner really starts to turn, it’s hard to see how anyone has the ability of backing this team.

2: Houston Astros (9-18, -$952) – Two weeks ago, we said that the Astros may just need to get away from home and hit the road for a bit. Since that point, they’ve gone 2-9 on the road and haven’t improved any at home. This is a team that is only going to get worse, not better, especially once the road out of town starts to open up and guys like 1B Lance Berkman and RHP Roy Oswalt get traded.

3: Cleveland Indians (8-14, -$617) – You have to go back to the middle of April to find the last time that the Indians won a series at home. Since the sweep of the White Sox that ended on April 18th, they are just 4-12 and have dropped $870 for MLB betting aficionados. Pitching has been a tremendous problem over these 16 games, as Cleveland has averaged allowing 6.06 runs per game since the middle of April.

Who’s Not?
1: New York Yankees (2-3, -$392) – Just two weeks ago, we had the Yankees on the top of the season standings for home teams, but we also warned that one bad week can really wreck that. That’s exactly what happened. Three losses as huge favorites at home have come back to destroy New York bettors, and we must keep warning that this is a team that is going to run in huge streaks this year.

2: Tampa Bay Rays (2-3, -$355) – Much like the Yankees, when the Rays get beaten at home, it is really starting to hurt. Even though Tampa Bay is still one of the best overall money teams in baseball, it is quickly becoming one of the worst money home teams. We expect that to change at some point, but it’s fairly clear that the oddsmakers are going to punish you in a big way if you plan on raising the stakes on the Rays at Tropicana Field and they lose.

3: Florida Marlins (1-4, -$310) – Manager Fredi Gonzalez should start to worry about his job. After the whole SS Hanley Ramirez situation, the head man for the Fish can now add the fact that his team has been the subject of a perfect game to his dubious resume. Florida had a woeful offensive series at home against Philly over the weekend, scoring just three total runs in as many games.
