Anyone play some MLB futures at the start of the season that look like LOSERS?

thanks bro. i put more on the phillies bet than i should have. they are not totally out of it but, it looks pretty bad.

i should stick to futures though...the regular bases bets are killing me.

Dodgers UNDER either 82.5 or 84.5 wins. not sure - but it doesn't matter.

it does appear my Padres - OVER will cash, and my Padres 35-1 and 75-1 futures are VERY alive!

Whatever book would offer that must have been out of their minds. There are too many other crappy teams in that division. If I recall correctly the Devil rays season win total was 70 and I even saw 72 under -200 somewhere.

So this could easily be scalped with the under 72 -200 and the +1500 not to finish in last place. If they win more than 72 you are assured they wont be in last place. The way it is they could both win.

Not last place +1500 - Geez.

jk, you will recall that, in the pre-season, the orioles and blue jays had very high expectations. both had season win totals around 82. the o's spent a bunch of money on tejada and lopez, etc. the jays had the young pitching guns, delgado, wells, etc.

also, the total wins on the d-rays was 68.5 or 69.

I have the padres at 100-1 to win it all
I got a 20 dollar bonus on a 40 doller dep at intertops so its essentially a 150-1 bet
Im not counting on it but I would have been quite happy if i knew that in mid august theyd have a legit playoff shot

Sorry Blue. Done, cooked, over, fin, final, finite, finished, end, fried, toast, smoked, obliterated, embarrassed, slaughtered, axed...

I am embarrassed to call them my home team right now.
