The Seattle Mariners were considered before the season began to be a competitor vs the MLB probabilities in MLB betting in the American League West.

That certainly was too optimistic. The Mariners have the 2nd-worst record at the sportsbook in the American League and continually struggle vs baseball probabilities.

The Washington Nationals already appear to be a team that is going to progress versus the MLB probabilities. Now that they have top draft choice Bryce Harper, they look even better now. He may be impacting MLB lines within a few years, and he’s nearly as hyped as Stephen Strasburg.
