Funny you should mention this.
Yahoo sports just wrote a nice piece yesterday on all the updated futures MLB odds after the trading deadline window closed.
I'll have to fetch the article (it's still out there) because I forget all the updated numbers, but LAD is odds on to win the division now, no value there.
I was seeking value on the White Sox, all I can get is +340 to win the AL (real odds are +390)
Books are not in business to give me an edge, I get that.
I can't get good value now on any futures.
Ten teams make the playoffs (five in each league) eight teams are already pretty much locked up.
Eight teams have better than a 64 percent chance right now of reaching post season.
Six teams have 90 percent or better chance of reaching post season.
*note* Which division is not represented here?
Win valuable prizes.
I'll post the rest of the league later.
But there are no pennant races per se, they're pretty much decided already, it's now a which team gets seeded where race.
