If the wagering public is right, unders will be one of the best bets of the day Monday on the baseball odds menu.
Monday Baseball Odds Preview: Unders Dominate Early Action
The top five most one-sided games in terms of betting percentages were all under plays with the Arizona at Miami game (at 69 percent) leading the way, according to the OddsShark.com baseball consensus picks tool.
It follows the early-season trend of low-scoring games and low baseball totals. The trend continued Sunday with 10 of the 16 games going under the total.
Yu Darvish, Felix Hernandez and C.J. Wilson are among the aces going Monday around the Majors. Only three games feature totals of nine or higher and the Brewers-Padres game had an opening line of 6.5 at several shops tracked by OddsShark.
