Indians +145 vs Bost but +350 for W.S. ?

Whoever makes it out of the AL will be heavy heavy favorites, how can the Indians only be a +145 dog vs Boston but still get +350 odds to win the WS?

There's got to be a middle there somehow (meaning better than just taking the Indians to beat Boston).

using a 2-team parlay as a ballpark figure, they are saying the indians would be a -115 or -120 favorite for the world series against the national league

+145 * -120 = about +350 on a two-teamer

i find that hard to believe that cleveland, with home field, would only be -120 against colorado or arizona.

What if Rockies sweep Zona and head to World Series winning 21 out of last 22, I would imagine Rockies might than be favored to win World Series, just like they're currently favored over Dbacks eventhough Dbacks have home field advantage. Just a thought!

I think the WS Champs will come out of the NL. Cleveland is going down in 4-5 games. Boston will choke in the WS.....

Yeah that's what I'm saying.

If you're gonna take Clev to win the Boston series, then you might as well take them to win it all, and then maybe mess with the NL teams moneyline somehow.
