With opening day of the Major League Baseball season upon us; it?s time for sports bettors to check out all the great MLB plays at betED.
From who will win the World Series, to which slugger will win the home run race, betED.com has it covered. For example, the top three favorites to win the Worlds Series are: New York Yankees (+375); New York Mets (+725); Boston Red Sox (+750).
Many baseball pundits are predicting that this season will see a new level of parity between National League and American League teams.
For years, the American League has had its way with its National counterpart, with last season no exception, as the AL went 154-98 against the NL, a .611 winning percentage (by comparison, the Mets and Yankees, who shared the best records in baseball, had a .598 winning percentage).
The AL also extended its All-Star Game winning streak to four games, beating the best the National League had to offer 3-2.
Therefore, when the St. Louis Cardinals took apart the Detroit Tigers 4-1 in the 2006 World Series, baseball fans could be forgiven for being at least a bit surprised. Now, one Series win clearly doesn't make up for years of domination by the DH league. Things are looking up for the NL, however, with several teams looking to improve and others just hitting their stride.
One indicator is the fact American League teams have been significantly outspent by their NL counterparts this offseason. Taking into account, all contract agreements of $3 million or more completed during the offseason, the AL has been outspent by 58 percent. National League teams have spent a total of $971,000,000 with 47 big-money contracts, while the AL teams have spent $613,095,000 on 38 deals.
