....at Stations Casinos here in Las Vegas. They're as square and shitty of any book here in town.

I know the Jays don't have much of a shot being in that division, but I don't see this team any higher than even 60-1 offshore.

Stranger things have happened, seems like a ton of value for a team that has finished with at least 85 wins in four of the last five years.

Yeah, that is a bunch of value. I think they finish second in the East behind Boston. Jays can mash, they have players who are due for a bounceback (Hill, Lind, Encarnacion)and the rotation is solid. I love the addition of John Farrell as manager. He did a great job with the young pitchers in Boston (Lester, Buchholz) and I see him doing the same work with Cecil, Morrow, Romero, Drabek and Rzep.

The Rangers had the 4th lowest payroll in baseball last season.

The Rays had the 2nd lowest payroll in baseball in 2008.

They both lost to teams under $100 million payrolls.

The Cubs had over $140 million last season and were never close.

The Mets had over $130 million last season and were never close.

The Mariners had the 9th largest payroll in baseball last season (the Giants were the 10th largest). Look at where they both finished.

Nice young team. No shot at winning it all. Happy to see Ricky Romero as the ACE this year..

orioles got a nice lineup, they will score some runs they will be pretty good this year, if any team was in need of a divison switch it's the o's u put them in the al central or al west and they have a real shot of winning the divison, they played well late in the year last year, i have them 3rd too with tampa and toronto battling for the cellar, watch out for the o's this year they will score a ton of runs

Look for a lot of overs with the O's this year... their offense will score a ton of runs and their pitching and bullpen will give up a lot of runs.  They will be winning and losing a lot of 9-7, 10-8, Ect type of games.  Their bullpen will eventually be the problem the entire season.

This is actually an untrue statement. They are owned by Rogers (which has an abundant amount of money). With Vernon Wells' contract now off the books, I have been reading reports where AA is getting the "okay" to increase spending in the next few years. Just a heads up they do have access to a lot of money if need be. (I am not a Jays fan at all, just leave near the city so I hear a lot about them). But definitely for this year, they wont be able to compete in the East with their current team.

the Jays have a nice young group of players....if they can make some trades and get some of that young talent out of the minors and actually producing at low value for their payroll, then I could the Jays getting a big name and making a good run in the next 2-3 years....they are not void of talent.....they just need to keep the young talented players and not trade them away.....

I'm in for $30 to win $3300. Free donation to the sportsbook. Plan on adding a few more dollars later.

It's worth a 20$ bet, who knows? If they make the playoffs by some chance it would be fun to know you have a chance to win some money if ever they pull off a miracle.

The Blue Joys have a better chance of winning the Stanley Cup than the World Series.
