That’s what I thought. -200 means you have to bet $200 to win $100, and +155 means a $100 bet wins $155, right. I was thoroughly confused by Bigs .80 cents example.

Thats because it was -180 not -200.

-180 means you have to bet $1.80 to win $1. if you win you get back your stake ($1.80) plus $1

Isn’t that what I said?

No. You said you’d win .80 if the Yanks won.

If you bet a dollar on the ML you’ll win .80 on the Yanks or 1.65 on the Guardians.

On a $1 bet.

I don't follow MLB that closely but how did I not know Pete Crow Armstrong existed?

Interesting how counting stats have changed - only 5 active players with > 8,000 PA given nearly 300 players in MLB history. Only 30 active players with > 5,000 PA. It'll be interesting how this is reflected in HOF counting stat understanding.

On a $1 bet.

If you bet $1 on a team -180 and win, you win $1.56

The crown for the AL Central and NL West is going to be fun to follow the rest of the way. All of the top teams in each division could string together 10+ wins in a row at any given time.

This post didn't age well for my thoughts on the AL Central.

The Tigers are legit and it looks like they are going to runaway with the division.

The Twins and Guardians are holding steady but both look shaky.

The wheels have fallen off the Royals bus.

The White Sox have been playing better but...... they are still the White Sox.

Not a great season for my Braves. Can't believe we're half way through.

What are the chances?
