If you are looking for a MLB future bet with great value look no further than the Toronto Blue Jays at +578 to win the AL East. Toronto is the real deal this season and they have done this under the radar since the vast majority are focused on the Yankees and Red Sox in the AL East. The Blue Jays have added some nice arms into the rotation this season and even strengthened their bats adding Frank Thomas as DH as well as a very good contact hitter (Royce Clayton). When you look up and down this Blue Jays line-up there simply are no weak spots.
Rios had an awesome start to the season last year until June.28 when he was in the sidelined with a staph infection which he never recovered 100% from until the off season. Rios was batting .330 with 15 homers and 53 RBI’s before he was sidelined. (Can you say MVP) Rios has looked solid this pre-season and he is back in true form putting on shows at batting practice as fans and teammates look on amazed at the raw talent he has.
The Blue Jays had no problem getting runs last season and now they even have a stronger line-up coming into this season. The Blue Jays problem last year was in the pitching department so they went out and got some guys that can get 10+ wins to take over Ted Lilly’s spot in the rotation. Ohka has looked solid this pre-season and Chacin has also looked great. The Toronto Blue Jays should be just fine this season getting the ball to Ryan unlike last season when they blew too many leads. If the Doc and Burnett stay healthy this Toronto team could do some serious damage this season.
I must say this is my favorite time of the year since there is so much money to be made betting baseball. There is so much more value betting baseball than any other sport since momentum only lasts as long as the starter for the next game.
Enjoy the MLB Season!
