Royals total wins 80.5

Cubs total wins 82.5 :eek:


Royals to win AL 17-1 (Clev,CWS,Tigers all ahead)

Cubs to win NL 8-1 :eek:

[Bowser]

Yeah, I saw we were projected fourth in the Central this year. And I think the wins total has gone up; I heard a week or so ago we were projected to win 74 or so. :spock:

[MTG#10]

Good, let us fly under the radar again...

[Bufkin]

AL Champions who have improved in my opinion.

Gotta love that small market chip on the shoulder. I think Moustakas finally blows up this season for an entire year. Hosmer will look to improve as well. I think this team is ready to prove people wrong yet again.

[Perineum Ripper]

Royals are horrible. :D

[Nzoner]

Oh to see a Royals/Cubs series.

[Bowser]

It sucks we won't have James Shields and his red ass swagger this year. I think he really instilled a will to win in this team that they hadn't felt in, well, decades. Hopefully Perez and Hosmer can drive this team going forward.

[Discuss Thrower]

I think they get the #2 Wildcard at best.

[KCwolf]

Does anyone remember their over/under win total from last season?

[Nzoner]

Does anyone remember their over/under win total from last season?

Last March while in Vegas I recall it being around 82.

Yikes

If pitching has a repeat season, anything is possible. If they could find a little power in that lineup--Gordon? Hosmer?--the Royals could dominate the division.

Would also help if Moose could bump the average up to at least .250.

Ventura has taken over Shields swagger. Did you see him during the playoffs with that spin leg kick. He gives no fucks. He might be one of my favorite Royals

yeah, if the 100+ heater wasn't enough, that performance he had where he just shut down the O's should make him everyone's favorite young Royal.




PS: FUCK all these naysayers.

[Hootie]

Oh to see a Royals/Cubs series.

I got the Cubbies at 28:1 for $25 when I was in Vegas in November. I think they are at 10:1 at this point.

Back to the Future 2 said Cubs win in 2015.

Admit it - they love you in Vegas, don't they?

Was that to win it all?

The 8:1 in the OP was NL only

[Hootie]

Yeah 28:1 to win it all

[BWillie]

LOL @ the Cubs odds.

Odds makers are forgetting one thing. THEY ARE THE FUCKING CUBS

[duncan_idaho]

LOL @ the Cubs odds.

Odds makers are forgetting one thing. THEY ARE THE FUCKING CUBS

And you're forgetting that...

1) They still have a ton of money and support
2) They have a few great, young, established MLB players already and are supplementing them with the best collection of hitting prospects seen in decades
3) Theo Epstein is the GM and has a history of helping organizations overcome "curses"

I like this guy too

You're a dumbass, and a terrible gambler.

[tredadda]

Exactly, no pressure on them. That's perfect for them.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Oh to see a Royals/Cubs series.

OMG This.

That would be the most intense WS in AGES.

[Discuss Thrower]

OMG This.

That would be the most intense WS in AGES.

And it would be the worst ever in TV ratings.

Javy Baez is garbage IMO, but the rest, they do have good system. I just think it will take longer than these odds indicate.

[jd1020]

And it would be the worst ever in TV ratings.

One of the most popular teams in the world playing in the WS isn't going to bring the worst ever ratings.

[tredadda]

This team was 90 feet from at least tying game 7 of the WS. If that and the remarkable playoff run do not instill a will to win James Shields would not have. Honestly the biggest loss we suffer from losing Shields is his ability to eat innings, but at his age that will catch up with him very soon. Glad we didn't resign him for what he got.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Cubs ROFL

What jd said.

The Cubs in a series, low ratings? I don't fucking think so.

He's a sCrUB/Chief fan. Poor sap will never see a title.

Man, that's like a double-AIDS dong to your sphincter and pee-hole.

[Archie F. Swin]

Remember how we got Jack Shit at the deadline and that mutherfucker took us to the promised land?


I do

[SPATCH]

I love how much prognosticators hate this team.

We still throw harder and defend better than any other team in the MLB. The offense will be better this season, as well.

This team should win the division.

[BigRedChief]

Oh to see a Royals/Cubs series.people think just because they have young hitters and Maddon they are going to win the central and the NL? Come on man. Don't put any real money on that bet. They are still the Cubs.

[Hootie]

You're a dumbass, and a terrible gambler.
So putting $25 at 28:1 because I figured they'd make a splash in free agency and seeing those odds drop to 12:1 before a game has even been played is terrible ... right.

[Hootie]

people think just because they have young hitters and Maddon they are going to win the central and the NL? Come on man. Don't put any real money on that bet. They are still the Cubs.
Added Lester and Kris Bryant is going to be the next superstar of baseball

[BigRedChief]

Added Lester and Kris Bryant is going to be the next superstar of baseballthey are still owned by dumbshits that cant even get the bleachers up in time.

[lewdog]

Added Lester and Kris Bryant is going to be the next superstar of baseball

I'm on the Kris Bryant bandwagon. Gonna be fun watching that kid!

But it's still the Cubs. I really hope they never win. So many bandwagon fans for no fucking reason. It really is retarded.
