The oddsmakers at BetOnline believe Cleveland's Major League Baseball team will be renamed the Spiders. Should this come to fruition the payout would be $250 for every $100 bet. The next likely name, paying $500 for every $100 bet, the Guardians.
Reports surfaced Sunday that the team would be changing its name of 105 years. The Indians name has been considered racist for a number of decades.
Cleveland Indians no more.

The Times said the team could make a formal announcement later this week. It’s not known when the name change will take effect or if the team has settled on a new moniker.
Ahead of this year's NFL season, the Washington DC NFL franchise got rid of its Redskins name and is currently referred to as the Washington Football team.
