Expect these odds to shift as the pennant races heat up. This page will serve as a hub for the remainder of the season. As the odds move, we will have you covered on teams’ postseason chances.

MLB Power Rankings: Braves stay on top & Mariners crack the top-10
Ben Verlander gives his updated MLB Power Rankings and the Atlanta Braves are yet again in the top spot & the Seattle Mariners finally crack the top-10.
FOX Sports MLB Analyst Ben Verlander respects the Angels’ decision to keep Ohtani and go all-in for the playoffs.
“Even after the Angels’ recent hot stretch, they remain three games back of a wild-card spot. Fangraphs pegs their playoff chances at 23%,” Verlander wrote. “But I respect that the Angels are going for it and doing everything that they can to keep the greatest player [Shohei Ohtani] we have ever seen.”
The Houston Astros have short odds to make the postseason (-1800), a place they have become familiar with the past few years as they’ve made four of the past six World Series. Although they had a tumble earlier this season, which saw their postseason odds tumble, they have righted the ship. Unless something wonky happens, you can bet on them to make a seventh straight playoff appearance.
The San Francisco Giants (-188) are currently tussling in the NL West with the Arizona Diamondbacks (+390) for a wild card position. With odds slightly shorter than Arizona, they hold a slight edge. However, this is a race to pay attention to as the season winds down because you may be able to sneak in a value bet or two.
