        for the AL pennant? or AL East?

        either way its worth a few bucks for the heck of it... maybe the red sox, yanks, and Rays all will get devasting injuries this year

                Probably not, but I'm enjoying their nice start and hope it continues.

                    It could be $1 to win a million and it's still a bad bet. They have absolutely no chance in hell of winning the division.

                      Seems like a waste to me, I still see them losing close to 100 games.

                        Well that's just ridiculous. There is almost zero chance they lose 100 games, and at this point probably won't even lose 90.

                          A million to one yes, 100 to 1 not so much.

                              its not the end of the world if you put a few bucks on it if you really believe it has a shot

                              they're probably a little less than 1% to win the east....but not too much less.

                                  No. Beating up on BAL isn't any kind of feat to be proud of.

                                    The Jays season is going to come down to how all the young pitchers fare. A lot of these guys may have early success because hitters are so unfamiliar with them(Some guys like Rzepczinski already benefitted from this last year).

                                    Throw in a turnaround from Vernon and they could be a lot better than people think. Like I said earlier though, still almost no chance of taking the division outright competing against all those powerhouses.

                                        Jays will end up around the .500 mark this year. They aren't as bad as some people make them out to be. That said, .500 is not enough to win the AL East.

                                          Depends on your assessment of their chances.

                                            Worth throwing 5-10 bucks on even though its very unlikely. Love all these jews saying its a bad bet. Its a few bucks you peasants and at +10000 why wouldnt you take a shot? Each year theres a team that comes out of nowhere and shocks. Like that episode of the office when they are betting on everything that fat bald guy says it best "Someone gives you 10000 to 1 on anything u take it."

                                              the jays started this way last year, they might sustain it for the month of april maybe. however, playing so many games against the yanks rays and sox will expose all the unfortunate weaknesses in their team. they have a few stars with individual strength, but save your money for a parlay instead which has more chance of winning

                                                you're referring to Kevin from the Office. if you watch that show much, he's pretty much the biggest idiot on there. I'd take his quote in that same context. sure it could happen. but if they're offering 100-1 odds, it probably means it's 1000-1 to happen, and they're cashing in on the greedy unrealistic people. 162 games is a long ass season. if it was NFL 16 games anything can happen, sure. I'll offer anyone 1000-1 odds cash money if they want a little more incentive on the bet.

                                                  Yeah, my friends love to use that "Anytime someone gives you 10,000-1 odds" line from the Office, but anyone who actually lives by that needs a good kick in the head.

                                                    The point I was trying to make was its 5-10 bucks are you really gonna miss that at the end of the day? I sure as hell know I wont. I waste that much on coffees in a few days. Sure it has 0.01% of hitting but Im willing to take a shot.

                                                      Still, there are better ways to spend it unless you really want a reason to follow and cheer for the Jays.

                                                          Im a diehard Jays fan so thats another reason I would do it LOL. Pretty much just a bet to have some fun with for the year even though I know its not gonna happen.

                                                                But if you justify throwing away $5, you'll soon find yourself justifying a lot more "throwaway" bets, and soon you'll be that crazy broke guy at the race track freaking out that his 500:1 horse didn't win and that none of his bets ever do.

                                                                Justified stupidity is a slippery slope.
