Tools To Use When Making Your Spreadsheet For Betting On Baseball

Unlike other sports, the game of baseball is one that relies on statistics.  Because of this, there are spreadsheets for betting on baseball.  The most common   baseball spreadsheets are for the baseball moneyline or baseball betting systems.
 
Whether you are just a true sports fan who enjoys keeping track of games on the fly and scoring along as you go, or whether you are a hard core sports bettor that wants to get every single stat crammed into your system to figure out who is going to beat the MLB betting lines that day, everyone uses baseball spreadsheets, and they can all be useful.  In my opinion, you should have the following stats: 

1.  The Batting or Pitching Season Finder. This tool allows you to search full-season or multi-year totals to find your own custom leaderboards.  You can filter the results in a vast number of ways: by specific years, by age, by first six seasons or last ten seasons, by American League only, by team only, by switch-hitters, by catchers, by outfielder or infielder, by year of debut, but active or retired, by Hall of Famer, by height and weight, by living or deceased, or by a range of common statistical categories.  Once you have filtered your leadboard, you can sort the results by any common statistic such as by the teams with the most players matching that category, by players with the most seasons matching that category, or by most recent, youngest, oldest, final year, or year of debut, and others.
 
2.  The Batting or Pitching Game Finder.  This tool allows you to search player game totals filtering on any of a dozen or more choices.  This tool can be done either on a single player level or on any batter from nearly sixty years or on any pitcher.  In addition, you can do the same for Team Batting or Team Pitching Totals.

3.  The Batting or Pitching Streak Finder.  This tool allows you to search player games looking for the most consecutive games matching a particular set of criteria.  This tool can be used for either on a single player level or on any batter from nearly sixty years or on any pitcher.  In addition, you can do the same for Team Batting or Team Pitching Streaks.

4.  The Batting or Pitching Event Finder. This tool is player specific and will out put a detailed summary and play-by-play list of all events of a specific type from a single year or an entire career.

5.  The Batter vs. Pitcher Tool. This tool presents a complete sortable list of batter or pitcher with totals for every opponent they faced by career or by year.

The above tools can be found on http://www.baseball-reference.com/play-index/.  Use the tools if you want to reaaly handicap a game!

Pitching coaches love using baseball spreadsheets to show how often a pitcher will pitch a ball in a certain part of the strike zone.  Managers, on the other hand, use baseball spreadsheets to track umpires and their tendencies, so they know what type of a strike zone they are going to get on a regular basis.  Managers also pay attention to where players hit the baseball on a regular basis.
