I understand why you would not want athletes to throw games on purpose if they place a large bet for the opposing team to win, however let’s say I am a pitcher in baseball, and I place a bet for my own team to win, wouldn’t that only motivate me to play better because I stand to win more money by doing so?

But then you agree with the other team to win. And the other team gives you money with which you jse to bet on yourself some more. Then you give the other team their share.
