Futures Watch: Week 25

The four AL spots are pretty much locked up, so the NL teams are what's interesting here.

I wonder how these different sites actually work. I think VIP is smaller than the others, so do they have to set more attractive lines to draw customers? That would make sense, since they're still making a (small) profit- this week their lines add up to 117%.

Anyway, the Padres at 14:1 is nice, mostly because of last night- they're up to almost 81% to make the postseason, with a 2.5 game lead in the Phillies in the WC with 11 games left.

Pedro pitches Friday night- if he looks as good as he did in his last start, you have to like the Mets at 7:1.

Beyond that, there's not much, although the Rockies are kind of a cool longshot (they're also up 9-3 on the Dodgers as I write this), and I continue to like the Indians because of the top of their rotation.

Update: Rockies win, and I missed this before but the Padres already won, increasing their lead to three games.
