Why the line moved
Why did the Twins vs Yankees line move?
The spread did not move from its opening number (Yankees -1.5) even with 71% of the spread money on the Yankees. The total moved 1.5 points toward the under (9.5 to 8) even though 84% of the total money sits on the over; the under holds 16% of the money and 17% of the tickets, so the line moved away from the money side.
