Best Bets To Make The Playoffs
St. Louis Cardinals (-152 To Make)
The Cardinals currently sit tied for the final wild-card spot in the National League, but have a lot of things working in their favor heading into the home stretch.
They’ve been hit by some pretty significant pitching injuries this season, including major blows to Jack Flaherty and Steven Matz. But, with a few days until the trade deadline, the Cards are expected to be big players for most of the available top starters. They’re also a contender for Nationals superstar Juan Soto, who would make the St. Louis lineup the best in baseball.
With the easiest schedule in the National League remaining, the Cardinals have a great path to make the playoffs and cash this bet.
Baltimore Orioles (+1025 To Make)
Alright, hear me out.
Sure, the Orioles probably aren’t going to make the playoffs, but this is still some great value. The AL East is tough, but there are a few soft spots for the Orioles to take advantage of down the stretch. The Red Sox might be selling, the Rays are super injured, and even the Jays and Yankees have both seemed flawed at times this year. The O’s currently sit three games back of the final AL playoff spot, and with an extra team making the postseason this year, this is worth a +1025 bet.

Best Bet To Miss The Playoffs
Tampa Bay Rays (+148 To Miss)
For many of the same reasons the Orioles are good value in these MLB odds to make the playoffs, the Rays are a nice bet to miss. Sure, the Rays are a perennial powerhouse that’s currently in a playoff spot. But, they’re also the most injured team in baseball.
With regulars Nick Anderson, Manuel Margot, Francisco Mejia, Mike Zunino, Kevin Kiermaier, Shane Baz, Wander Franco, Harold Ramirez and more all currently on the injured list, the Rays’ depth has been tested. Even Tampa, with all the depth in the world, can’t continue to survive this many injuries, and we’re banking on them finally falling back to earth.
