Do not play many full season props in any sports, but this was just too hard to lay off. Was in Vegas recently and played them both:
Orioles Un 62.5
Nats Un 71.5
These are the two teams that I follow in baseball and I think they both are going to be terrible this year. Nothing new for the Orioles who are still in full rebuild mode. They have a great farm system now, but the A team is terrible. Will likely get worse if they trade Means and Mullins which is very likely. They are following the Astros model and this year could be their worse ever.
I think what the owners and management of the Nats did was criminal. Trading Trea Turner is inexcusable in my mind. They took tons of money off the payroll and have added nothing of real consequence. Their pitching was bad last year and this year they lost Scherzer and added Anibal Sanchez (and big baby Strasburg may never return)? Give me a break. This is a very incomplete team and I feel bad for Juan Soto because he may not get pitched to all season even in the number 2 hole. Expectations are low, but I think it is going to be much worse than people think and I expect a veteran unload at the all star break and at least 100 loses, so I consider this the stronger play.
