I decided to check the odds the Mets are currently getting in the futures market. It's important to note that it is very early for these numbers and they will change drastically as the season gets closer and goes on. We will revisit them every few months to check in. Right now I think Vegas has a little too much faith in the Mets. Of the two sports book ( Bovada and Vegas Insider ) I looked at they were currently getting 100-1 odds and 75-1 odds to win the World Series. This is similar odds to the A's, Mariners and Royals and better odds than the Orioles, Padres and Astros (who came in as high as 300/1). Teams that were slightly ahead of us include the Twins, White Sox, Cubs and Indians. The favorite to win in both books was the Phillies (11/2 odds) followed by the Yankees and Angels.
I think these are probably the best odds the Mets will get all year. Once the season begins and gets underway I predict they will go up quite a bit, so if you are looking to make a bold, risky Mets bet, I would wait until the All Star break to lock in better odds.
