I am sure those are two teams that Vegas has no trouble getting bets on so stretching their odds to far would be damaging if a miracle happened.Mets and Cubs at +2500edit: Wait, the Cubs are at 2000.

sorry GB, just bored today...

But assuming its the Reds. I think they are right with the Cubs in teams that possibly could push towards a 90 win season if things fall right. Both could be below 500, but I see the pieces for success.sorry GB, just bored today...

I would agree and we are probably battling each other for 2nd. If the Cardinals slip up, all bets are off. I highly doubt that the WC is coming out of the central though so we all need STL to fade back a bit for it to matter. Nobody is going to go win 100 games and take it from them.I think the Reds have a little more unpredictability to them though. They once again have a high ceiling and pretty low floor for this season. Like a lot of other teams, they need a fast start.But assuming its the Reds.

I understand exactly how they work. Mets should be +4500 at least but the dopey public (ie, guys like you) will buy them at that price because they signed a big-name free agent.Seems that someone doesn't understand how odds work.Mets and Cubs at +2500edit: Wait, the Cubs are at 2000.

You really think Jason Bay moved the Mets # -2000?I understand exactly how they work.

i wouldnt take those odds unless it was to win the Central.I'm not a Cub fan, but those odds are good value, IMO.
Don't see that happening either.i wouldnt take those odds unless it was to win the Central.I'm not a Cub fan, but those odds are good value, IMO.
I think it is possible to make the playoffs. Zambrano, Dempster, Lilly, Wells, Marshall could be a above average pitching staff.Marmol could be an elite closer and Guzman could be an elite setup.Soto and Soriano could rebound.Lee and Ramirez could stay healthy.Byrd could be a a very good hitter.I don't expect all of it happen, but i do think they all could possibly happen and cause the Cubs to win 90+ games.Don't see that happening either.i wouldnt take those odds unless it was to win the Central.I'm not a Cub fan, but those odds are good value, IMO.

All the "could"s are why I have no confidence. I have a little hope but no expectation.boubucarow said:I think it is possible to make the playoffs.

awesomebetting on championship futures is idiotic imo.
So who are you betting on?betting on championship futures is idiotic imo.
Your welcome.awesomebetting on championship futures is idiotic imo.
I am a Cub fan and those odds are terrible. The Cubs aren't very good. They need a bunch of guys to have career years.I'm not a Cub fan, but those odds are good value, IMO.
Not a bad bet, but I think the sox at 25-1 are a better bet. This coming from a cubs fan. That pitching staff is very, very good.Best value on the board is the Rays at 25-1, IMO.
Thought this was interesting that the Dodgers and Angels are lined at the same odds.I know SF is the popular pick this year in the west, but the Dodgers are still pretty good. Their rotation could use some work, but if they get a break out year from a guy like McDonald, and Padilla can get you 170 or so serviceable innings, this team should be in the hunt to win the west. Manny shouldn't be out 50 games on suspension, Ethier, Kemp, MArtin, Loney are still all young guys that should be good. Blake and Furcal may take steps back, but I think the Dodgers offense and bullpen are way, way ahead of the Giants.MLB : World Series 2010 To Win Moneyline 112 Los Angeles Angels +1400 113 Los Angeles Dodgers +1400 Betus.com
I havent heard anyone pick the Giants. Generally the Dodgers or maybe the Rockies, even the DBacks, but not the Giants. Giants could very well have the worst offense and infield defense in MLB.Thought this was interesting that the Dodgers and Angels are lined at the same odds.I know SF is the popular pick this year in the west, but the Dodgers are still pretty good.
