The World Series

The Astros and the Nationals face off tomorrow in the 115th edition of MLB's World Series. Houston is a big favorite, the moneyline currently between -187 and -200. You would have to bet that amount to win $100. Washington lists at +162 to +180, that's the payoff for a $100 bet. So you can see that oddsmakers favor the Texas team. The Nats have some really good starters--Scherzer, Strasburg, Corbin, Sanchez--and if they match up with the 'Stros big three--Cole, Verlander, Greinke--it could be a close contest. The Astros are probably deeper in talent, especially on offense, but we saw the Yankees neutralize those bats for long stretches.
