Here are the Need-to-Knows:

1. Interleague road dogs are 10.3 points overvalued as compared to divisional rivalry road dogs. See our betting on interleague games guide to see why.
2. There is 3 more points of value when taking these teams off of a win. Momentum goes a long way in baseball and when you are betting an underdog, you rather put your money on a team that has been winning than on a team that has been losing.
3. These teams are the worst in the second game of a series. 5 points more overvalued as comparent to game 1.
4. These teams do well after scoring double digit runs. As we said in #2, momentum goes a long way. And you are best advised to bet on teams that are scoring in bunches than on a team struggling to score runs. The caveat to all of that is when this team is off of being shut out, they practically break even. But a lot of that has to do with being undervalued by the sportsbooks than on a really true gain in advantage.
5. These teams tend to be a pretty good bet in the first game of a series if they are coming off of a win. And a horrible bet if going into the series off a loss. There is a 14 point difference in the value associated with the team off of a win than off of a loss. Look at #2 for similar reasoning. Or read more at the Game 1 of a series guide.
