So I think I've found some value in several spots.
NYY Over 95.5 wins (+102) - Even with Montas out, the starting rotation is going to be strong. They won 99 games last year and I expect the same this year.
BAL Over 76.5 wins (-130) - They won 83 games last year, this after starting out 14-24. I think they build on this momentum and another .500 season is likely within their grasp.
TEX to win AL Pennant +2413 - Their starting rotation is going to be about the most experienced in all of MLB and they could give HOU a run for their money. I put their chances at about 20 to 1, which provides plenty of value here.
MIN to win AL Pennant +2160 - Lots of attention on CLE and CWS in the AL Central, MIN could quietly score a ton of runs this year and make a splash. I think there's value here as I put their chances at 18 to 1.
MIL to win NL Pennant +2150 - Again, I see value here, and they have a good chance of winning the NL Central. I put their chances at 17 to 1 to make it to the WS.

A MLB "futures" bet is a wager on an event where the outcome will be determined much later in a given MLB season--beyond just the current day or week. Popular MLB futures center around results like betting on a team to make the playoffs, win their respective division and/or league, or to win the World Series. Other common MLB futures bets include correctly picking individual players to receive accolades like the AL or NL Most Valuable Player awards and Cy Young awards. If the selected team or player wins the event on which the wager was placed, the bettor wins their bet. MyInsite

Thats a tight number on yanks, I am a yanks fan btw, but Montas was a bum for the yanks. He went 1-3 with 4 ND over 6 era, not even 40 innings pitched. He was really laboring on the mound. Best case scenario for Frankie is late August but if Clarke Schmidt or German get comfy, Frankie is no lock in rotation and i could see him as trade bait before he even plays another game
I hope the O's start where they left off, and a big plus at closer to get them to maybe 80 wins is Bautista and that nasty splitter. 103 heat also helps
Also like Rangers and Brewers chances, not sure about the twinkies. Maybe if Lopez stinks it up again and Rocco smartens up and puts the 2nd year rookie Duran to close out and not hold games they could get there. ahhhh just my opinion tho. Good Luck BLUE

I have been betting the over on Mil season win totals last few years, but their roster decisions with their pitching staff are infuriating. Counsel is a good manager, but I don’t like the GM there apparently

MIL has been infuriating for sure. Ever since they traded away Greinke a decade ago, they just can't seem to get their act together. The team always looks great on paper and shows flashes of greatness, but they inevitably crack under pressure and find a way to not make a run when it counts.

I just didn't see as much value in the Twins RSW total or division title odds. They could easily lose 88 games this year and finish 3rd in the AL Central. But I think if they do make a run, they go deep, which is why I took them to win the AL pennant.

I should also mention that I had $100 on HOU in game 7 as a hedge. Overall, not a bad year for MLB futures. I've got nothing on the WS. Hoping to do it again next year.
