Best MLB Handicappers

Written by Jack Jones

best-mlb-baseball-handicapper-032309 The 2008 MLB season was marred with headlines about steroids, but there was plenty of great baseball. American League Manager of the Year, Joe Madden, took the Tampa Bay Devil Rays to the World Series to face the eventual 2008 World Series Champions, the Philadelphia Phillies. There were several amazing individual performances last year including Albert Pujols grabbing his 2nd NL MVP Award and Dustin Pedroia becoming just the 3rd player in MLB history to win an MVP award the year after winning the Rookie of the Year. It was a year to remember to be sure and right here at Betfirms.com, we had our own spectacular individual performances in 2008.

2008 MLB Hanidcapping Champion: John Martin was crowned our overall MLB handicapping champion in 2008 earning his clients over 1,710 units of profit over the course of the year. Martin hit 53 percent on the year (236-209), specializing in hitting high value underdogs, putting him over the top of the competition despite hitting a slightly lower percentage. What John understands is that you don’t need to hit at an amazing clip in MLB betting, you just need to be consistently good at hitting underdogs to maximize your bankroll. John is back and ready in 2009 to take on the competition and show that 2008 was no fluke. Pick up his MLB picks for the season at his handicapper page and get ready for another season full of profit.

Here are the final handicapping standings for the 2008 MLB season. As you can see, John held off late-comer Nick Jones as well as experienced MLB handicapper Jeff Alexander to win our competition. We’ve added several top handicappers since last year and every one of them will be gunning for Mr. Martin, who had this to say about having the target on his back in 2009: “To all comers who think they have a chance at taking down the defending 2008 MLB Handicapping Champion, get your popcorn ready because I’m going to put on an even better show in 2009!”.
