Atlanta Braves (+135)

The Braves finished second in 2024 (89-73) and are eyeing a return to the top. They’ve made quiet but solid offseason moves, though losing Max Fried and A.J. Minter hurts. Atlanta’s star power with Acuña Jr. and Strider keeps them in the driver’s seat, but the margin for error is slimmer this year.

New York Mets (+180)

The Mets broke the bank with Juan Soto’s $765M deal, doubling down on their win-now mentality. New additions Frankie Montas and Clay Holmes should help, but Pete Alonso needs to bounce back. This roster is stacked, but Mets fans know how quickly "stacked" can turn into "disaster."

Overall, though, the Mets' outlook is better than ever.

Philadelphia Phillies (+190)

Fresh off a 95-67 division-winning season, the Phillies added Jesús Luzardo to a rotation already led by Zack Wheeler and Aaron Nola. Max Kepler joins Harper and Turner to round out a killer lineup. They’re built for October, but will the bullpen holes sink them down the road, especially in late September?

Washington Nationals (+12,500)

The Nationals’ rebuild continues after a 71-91 slog last season. Adding Nathaniel Lowe and Josh Bell brings stability, but the real focus is on prospects like Dylan Crews. This team has zero chance in 2025, but the future isn’t as bleak as the next team on our list.

Miami Marlins (+30,000)

The Marlins are coming off a 62-100 trainwreck and aren’t even pretending to contend. With a gutted roster and no clear path forward, they’re the lock of the century for dead last.

NL East Odds & Pick: Mets (+180)

The Mets’ rotation has the perfect mix of veterans and prime-aged talent, making it one of the most balanced in baseball. Their defense, anchored by Francisco Lindor, quietly ranks among the league’s best and will save plenty of runs in a tough division. Add in Soto’s game-changing bat, and this team has all the tools to outlast its rivals in a long season. At +180, there’s solid value here for a team built to contend.
