Was looking over the futures market the last couple of days and looking over the al/nl pennant odds and i came up with some teams i think have some value.
For the NL
I see these as the lines
Winner of NL Pennant04:00 PM
2001 Atlanta Braves+608
2002 Arizona Diamondbacks+2224
2004 Cincinnati Reds+2023
2005 Colorado Rockies+3336
2009 Milwaukee Brewers+966
2010 NY Mets+7582
2011 Philadelphia Phillies+117
2012 Pittsburgh Pirates+3538
2014 San Francisco Giants+658
2015 St Louis Cardinals+1113
2016 Washington Nationals+8592
I see those two as representing some decent value. I really think the braves have a good chance to go to the world series. The phillies are not good enough at the plate to win the whole thing and with braves pitchers i can see a repeat of what sf did to philly last year. Mil has some value cause they can hit and some good arms and a good late bullpen. Those are the only two i would put money on cause sf has no chance of getting back to the series( lightning rarely strikes twice).
Winner of AL Pennant04:00 PM
3002 Boston Red Sox+168
3003 Chicago White Sox+2022
3004 Cleveland Indians+2022
3005 Detroit Tigers+1214
3007 LA Angels of Anaheim+1512
3008 Minnesota Twins+3540
3009 NY Yankees+262
3011 Seattle Mariners+6062
3012 Tampa Bay Rays+2927
3013 Texas Rangers+710
Although nothing stands out here the twins have to be considered good value cause they are getting healthy and have already played 50 road games as opposed to 39 home games. I think Boston is probably gonna win the AL pennant but i would also take a stab at the angels. They have good pitching but can it hold up? I surely think they can win the west.
Thoughts?
