I am just looking over the MLB markets for 16 April and all the run lines are showing at 5.5 runs!

I'd hope that this is a glitch but I've refreshed several times and am seeing the same thing...

Is everyone else seeing this and/or do you know why this is the case?

Some moron on the Betfair markets team put up 5.5 run over/unders today.
Should be fired, pronto.
A complete embarassment to Betfair though par for the course with NA sports.

I think the moron thought he was putting up NHL matches.
Probably he doesn't know the difference.

I'm afraid it's a measure of how we US sports' bettors are viewed at BF Towers

Could you imagine if they pulled this stunt in an English football match?

While I'm ranting, it's also disconcerting that all of the MLB markets are listed pitcher markets but Betfair can't be bothered to actually list the pitchers on the run lines and totals lines. They only list the pitchers in the match odds market, so if you want to bet on the totals market you have to check the match odds to see if they have the correct pitchers! Total rubbish!

Just noticed this. I just asked them to load additional lines, which they say they're doing now.

They've added different total lines to all the games except two, which they seem to have forgotten. Refresh if you can't see them.

Glad to see I'm not the only one put off by this.

I could have taken my baseball betting anywhere else but went with Betfair because they at least have markets up early, even if they don't have much depth.

Watch this space I guess - its one way to stop people putting money into the markets, first day I hadn't been on the baseball in weeks, completely due to those lines.
