The cream of the crop in the American League is the Houston Astros (+425). The Astros have also vaulted past the 100+ win plateau. While it may seem that a large reason for their success is their weak division, Houston is 34-22 against teams with a record of .500 or better.
Following the Dodgers and Astros are the two teams from the Big Apple. The Mets and Yankees are both +500 to win it all. The Mets have a slim lead on the Braves for the NL East crown, while the Yankees locked up the AL East with a win over the Blue Jays on Tuesday.
As for the Blue Jays, they have the sixth shortest odds at +1400, but the best of the three teams they are battling with for the top wild card position. Seattle comes in at +2500 and Tampa Bay at +2800.
