The Red Sox acquisition of left-handed ace
Chris Sale has certainly affected the betting markets. According to
Covers.com, bookies have
slashed Boston's odds of winning the 2017 World Series from 10/1 (before the trade) to 5/1 (today). This puts
The Carmine Hose in the second spot on the list—behind only the
World Series Champion Chicago Cubs at 3/1. You will all be happy to know that
The Bronx Embalmers emerged from the Winter Meetings with longer odds than when they went in.
The Evil Ones now stand at 30/1 to win the 2017 Fall Classic—up from 25/1.
