MLB2016

For this task we will use the pinnacle.data package from CRAN. pinnacle.data contains a snapshot of odds over time in a subset of Pinnacle’s sports betting markets. We will be using the MLB2016 dataset, which is part of this package. You might also like to make use of odds.converter, another Pinnacle package on CRAN, which allows us to easily convert between different odds types and probabilities.

Packages

To install the required packages and load the dataset required for this task, run the following lines of code (un-comment the install.packages lines if you need to install these packages).

install.packages("pinnacle.data")

install.packages("odds.converter")

library(pinnacle.data)

library(odds.converter)

library(dplyr)

There are various questions that I answered using the data set, but this is not to stop you from continuing you research through the data.
