At first glance, Nationals-Over; Phillies-Under; Mets-Over.

I think the Mets will win more than 71.5 games. (How would one place a bet on this, if one were so inclined? And what does (-115u) mean?)

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

If you're betting the under, then you win back 100 on a wager of 115. One would guess that, on those particular bets, they're getting a lot of action on the "under," but are loath (or prohibited?) from moving the actual line.

Phillies under, Blue Jays, Red Sox over.

Mets way over.

[MFS62]

Mets over.
By how much?
I'll wait for the annual CPF official prediction thread.

Over: Mets, Astros, Rangers

As pessimistic as i generally am, i can't see the Mets losing 91+ games this year. They're no worse than they've been the last 4 years (never losing that many over that period), and potentially better. I'll take the over.

Not over/under, but I'm leaving Las Vegas today. I put $20 on the Mets to win the World Series this year at 100:1.

A miracle would make me a cool $2000 in October.

100:1? nice. I only got 66:1 online. (although collection is easier that way I imagine)

Grantland sez that with a whole lotta luck, they might finish as high as third:

New York Mets: How large is Bartolo Colon? Signing a former Cy Young winner who�s coming off a four-WAR season for two years and $20 million is a pretty nice piece of business. Of course, Colon is also almost 41 years old, throws only one pitch, and is, well, spherical. But that�s the pond Sandy Alderson has to fish in now that his owners literally got bilked out of millions in a Ponzi scheme (and no, saying that now is neither less bizarre nor less funny than it was when the news first broke). Alderson also made a few other nice moves this offseason, adding outfielders Chris Young and Curtis Granderson. If a few things break right, including Colon�s voodoo working for another year, the Mets could finish as high as third in the NL East.

they finished third last year and that's an easy bet to happen again.

I see a third place team with possibilities.
