Tampa Bay drew 65% of Caesars’ moneyline money on 52% of bets ahead of Thursday’s ALCS Game 3 against Cleveland. The Rays held a slim majority of outright-win tickets, but a noticeably larger share of the dollars.
That 13-percentage-point gap puts the heavier average moneyline wager on Tampa Bay in this Caesars sample. Cleveland accounted for the other 48% of bets and 35% of money, so the bet count was much closer than the money split.
The run-line picture was closer: Caesars reported 48% of spread money on Cleveland and 57% of spread bets on Tampa Bay. The post did not supply the run-line prices, total stakes or wager counts. Those figures describe separate markets at Caesars; they do not establish professional action or an industry-wide position.
