While the Cubs and Indians were essentially at opposite sides of EVEN odds to win the 2016 World Series once they qualified (Cubs 5-6, Indians 6-5), early future bettors got some terrific value back in March.

The Cubs were instilled at 16-1 odds of winning the 2016 World Series and expected to win 82 regular season games.  The Cubs would eventually become the favorite to win much of the regular season.

The Indians entered the season as even bigger long shots at 25-1 odds. 

And the ball club to win this year's World Series, which went into overtime 6-6.....

The Chicago Cubs - Winning for the First Time Since 1907 - Congratulations to the Cubs

The Cubs went up 7-6 in the 10th inning following a brief rain delay.  Ben Zobrist helped deliver that run with and double with only one out. 

Miguel Montero singled to left with Rizzo scoring and bases loaded.  Trevor Bauer was brought into the game to pitch for Cleveland.

Chris Paddack Player Prop Bets

Paddack recorded 10 strikeouts over seven shutout innings on Monday in a win over the White Sox. Prior to that start, Paddack was obliterated by the Orioles, allowing nine runs on 12 hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox.  Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Trevor Williams Player Prop Bets

The Nats Trevor Williams held the Astros to one run with four strikeouts across six innings in a no-decision on Saturday.  And the betting public was eating him up at a near 80% clip.
