Earlier in the week, the folks at Baseball Prospectus unveiled the PECOTA projections for the year, with a typically-deflated Orioles win total of 73.

The Atlantis Casino in Reno has, for over a decade, been the first of the sportsbooks to set MLB win total bets. So it’s just one casino and it’s just the preliminary numbers, but it’s interesting to see where the Orioles come in on this stuff.
