The AL Central presents a bit of a conundrum when you’re putting together the division’s MLB win totals puzzle. (Except for the Royals. They’re the piece of the puzzle the dog chewed up and doesn’t fit anymore.) The White Sox are the cream of the crop, but questions abound. How much will Carlos Correa gas […]
The release of MLB win totals odds reveals bookmakers’ expectations for a little bit of everything in the NL Central.

When Atlanta Braves center fielder Adam Duvall stepped to the plate with two outs in the bottom of the first inning Sunday night and blasted a grand slam, World Series bettors who backed Atlanta to win the Fall Classic probably started counting their winnings. After all, Duvall’s blast gave the red-hot Braves — who were […]
The World Series odds board is down to two teams, and neither is one of Major League Baseball’s three 100-win clubs from the regular season (Giants, Rays, and Dodgers).
