The 2013 MLB regular season is in the books, and on this final Sunday night of the season, as we await the Texas-Tampa tiebreaker game on Monday, followed by the two wild-card games on Tuesday and Wednesday, let’s clean up one last loose end from the season and it’s to review each team’s win props.
When TheSportsNotebook did the preseason previews for each major league baseball team, we included the number Las Vegas posted as the Over/Under for win totals. With nine days left in the regular season, let’s check in on who were the winners and losers when it came to meeting the expectations of the betting markets. TheSportsNotebook does this method, not because we’re evaluating everyone’s bets, but because measuring a team by how they did against reasonably informed expectations gives a fair gauge on how we should perceive a team’s season.
