Line movement across 8 books suggests sharp money driving this side. The +150-to-+195 range on St. Louis Cardinals indicates books are adjusting to professional action.

Baseball is a moneyline-driven sport where even heavy favorites only win ~60-65% of the time. A 69% implied probability pushes the edge of MLB value — the juice gets steep fast. Line shopping yields a +195 vs +150 range on the dog.

Line shopping is critical here — 45-point odds gap across books means getting the best number adds 13.5% to expected ROI. Best available at Caesars vs worst creates meaningful EV difference.
