William Boor’s Marlins vs White Sox Preview, Betting Analysis
You never need much of a reason to fade the White Sox, but blindly betting the Marlins doesn't feel great either. Luckily, we're not just blindly backing the Marlins. Bet Labs has a system that fades teams against the Marlins when their opponent is returning from a road trip.
The White Sox were just on the road, which triggered this system. So, let's take a deeper look into the system … and then bet Miami to win tonight.
Teams returning from a road trips often underperform in the first game of their next series due to travel fatigue, body clock disruption and limited adjustment time. When that next opponent is the Miami Marlins — a team not typically priced among the elite — market perception may still overvalue the returning team.
That creates value in betting on the Marlins in the series opener.
