Understanding Public and Money

Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Matt's Analysis:

No Nico Hoerner or Cody Bellinger for the Cubs (lineup not out yet, but I'm presuming on Bellinger after he left Monday as he probably will need a game or two but not an IL stint), and they might be the two most important players in that lineup. Pitcher Justin Steele has been out of this world at 6-0 with a 1.82 ERA but that's obviously not sustainable. The regression might be underway as Steele has allowed three runs in two of his past three. Houston's Cristian Javier has a 3.03 ERA, .179 opponent average, a 0.91 WHIP and an 12.13 strikeouts per 9.0 ratio over his past five.
