Playoff Odds
Despite winning nine of ten games and tying the Braves for the third Wild Card spot in the National League, the Braves are a big favorite over the Mets to make the Wild Card.
Granted, they both still can make it, but the Padres and D’Backs are significant favorites to earn a Wild Card spot.
The Braves have ten remaining games against teams with a winning record and all ten are at home. Meanwhile, the Mets have 13 games against winning team and nine of them are on the road.
Atlanta Braves to make the Playoffs

New York Mets to make the Playoffs

On the American League side of the Wild Card spots, it seems like a foregone conclusion that the Orioles/Yankees, Royals, and Twins will get the three spots.
There are four teams on the outside looking in with long shots to earn a spot in the playoffs, where anything can happen. Ask Texas and Arizona!
The oddsmakers at BetOnline.ag created this fun prop for the outsiders.
