Background
Tanner McGrath is a sports betting analyst for the New York Post. He’s been messing around in this industry for a half-decade, starting with his low-readership baseball blog and somehow turning it into a full-time career, with bylines on Forbes, the Chicago Tribune, the Philadelphia Inquirer and others. He specializes in college hoops but can handicap almost any sport with lines. His favorite sports-gambling endeavors include wagering on the Miami Marlins, the Vermont Catamounts, and any gross home ‘dog.
