Why the line moved
Why did the Twins vs Rangers line move?
The spread did not move from its opening number (Rangers -1.5) even with 85% of the spread money on the Rangers. The total moved 0.5 points toward the under (7.5 to 7) even though 90% of the total money sits on the over; the under holds 10% of the money and 9% of the tickets, so the line moved away from the money side.
