The Due Theory in Baseball

In 1988 the Baltimore Orioles lost their first 21 games. I can share with you many other similar examples in virtually every team sport. It is a mistake to bet on a team that you feel IS DUE FOR A WIN.

It's human nature to think that will happen, but in reality you have no way of knowing when a losing streak will end. The smart thing to do is to stay away from teams that are on a losing streak until they prove you wrong. There are exceptions to the rule here but this is a good guideline to follow, especially if you are a beginner.

Just look at how poorly the Boston Red Sox have started this year. There is not one handicapper or professional analyst that would have predicted that Boston would start 2W-11L.

They are starting to turn things around now and they are on the verge of a three game winning streak. Now is the right time to look at Boston.

Do not get caught up in the "Due Theory". Do not force plays, wait until they come to you.
