Odds For Regular Season Wins Over/Unders 2014 MLB Year

Last Week, Hunter Stokes (MLB Reports Chief Writer) picked through http://www.bovada.com – and what value was to be had in their odds sheet for regular year win over/unders.

This time, I am looking at bet365.com for some of the same.

Hunter and I both come from the handicapping landscape, and have done quite well in the last few years. 

While I predicted a Detroit and Cincinnati World Series pre 2012, Hunter picked the Giants and Yankees.  That was a much better year than the 2013 season.

In 2013, I did say it was going to be Los Angeles Dodgers versus the Angels in a freeway Series, and Hunter picked Detroit and Atlanta.  You do okay if you can have a final 4 participant.

This year, it looks like we both have the LA Dodgers to win in the Fall Classic, but I have them beating the Tigers, while Mr. Stokes likes the Rangers to faceoff against them.

We could be wrong mind you. but at least we are putting our necks on the line for it. 

Teams and Over Under Odds:

Arizona DiamondBacks: 81.5:  Over -105, Under -125 (Take the Over)

LA Dodgers:  92.5:  Over -135, Under +105 (Take the Over)

Atlanta Braves: 88: Over -110, Under -120 (Take the Under)

Baltimore Orioles: 82: Over -110, Under -120 (Take the Over)

Boston Red Sox: 88: Over +105. Under -135 (Take the Over)

Detroit Tigers: 90: Over -120, Under -110 (Take the Over)

Miami Marlins: 69.5: Over -125, Under -105 (Take the Under)

Minnesota Twins: 70.5: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Under)

New York Mets: 74: Over -125, Under -105 (Take the Under)

New York Yankees: 87: Over -110, Under -120 (Take the Over)

Philadelphia Phillies:  76.5: Over -110, Under -120 (Take the Under)

Pittsburgh Pirates: 84.5: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Over)

St. Louis Cardinals: 91.5: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Over)

Tampa Bay Rays: 88:  Over -110, Under -120 (Chuck – Over, James – Over )

Washington Nationals: 90: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Over)

Chicago Cubs: 70: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Under)

Chicago White Sox: 76: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Under)

Cleveland Indians: 81: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Under)

Colorado Rockies: 76.5: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Over)

Kansas City Royals: 82:  Over -115, Under – 115 (Take the Over)

LA Angels: 86.5: Over -125, Under -105 (Take the Under)

Milwaukee Brewers: 80: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Under)

Oakland A’s: 88.5: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Over)

San Diego Padres:79:  Over +100, Under -130 (Take the Under)

San Francisco Giants: 86.5: Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Over)

Seattle Mariners: 81: Over +100, Under -130 (Take the Under)

Texas Rangers: 87:  Over -115, Under -115 (Take the Over)

There was no odd on the board for the Houston Astros, although I peg them at about 60 wins for the year.

Top 5 Bets.

1.  San Diego Padres under 79 Wins (try in the 60’s)

2.  Texas Over 87 wins (they have 4 straight 90+ Win years, and will trounce Houston this year in season series.

3.  Washington Over 90 Wins *They won 98 in 2012, went 26 – 13 in their last 39 games, and have a favorable NL East schedule

4.  Kansas City Royals Over 82 Games.  They win 85 games last year, went 47 – 34 on the last 81 and have upgraded the lineup

5.  Cincinnati Reds Over 84.5: Another team who won 91 games last year despite losing several guys to injury. have capable replacements, and should surpass this total easy.

The Rays have one of the 2 best Starting Pitcher staffs in the American league, and have averaged over 90 wins for the last 6 years.  Bringing back Price, and having Myers and Archer for a full year should make the team even better in 2013.  Keep in mind they have also added Heath Bell and Grant Balfour to anchor the Bullpen, an obvious upgrade over the inconsistent Fernando Rodney.  They have been more consistent than the Red Sox and Yankees the last 2 years.  So the Rays are +1800 to win the WS - but have the exact same odd on the Over/Under as Boston does at 88.  How does this make sense?  Just shows you more of what I have been saying TB is he best odd to win the WS.

About chuckbooth3023

I played competitive baseball until 18 years old and had offers to play NCAA Division 1 University Baseball at Liberty University. Post-concussion symptoms from previous football and baseball head injuries forced me to retire by age 19. After two nearly made World Record Attempts in 2008, I set a New World Record by visiting all 30 MLB Parks (from 1st to last pitch) in only 24 Calendar Days in the summer 0f 2009. In April of 2012, I established yet another new GWR by visiting all 30 Parks in only 23 Calendar Days! You can see the full schedule at the page of the www.mlbreports.com/gwr-tracker . In 2015, I watched 224 MLB Games, spanning all 30 MLB Parks in 183 Days. Read about that World Record Journey at https://mlbreports.com/183in2015/229sked2015/
