Odds to win National League Central

The National League Central is going to be one of the tightest divisions in all of Major League Baseball. The National League Central very well could be one of the worst divisions in all of Major League Baseball, but time will tell on that one. The Cubs are +180 to win the National League Central. That is tied with the Cardinals. This is not a bad bet. The Cubs were right there a season ago, and Milwaukee seems to have taken a dip. The Cardinals were lost, so they are banking on quite a bit of improvement. The Cubs at +180, especially if Justin Steele can pitch like he did in 2023 and Kyle Hendricks comes back and can limit the opposition every five starts.

Odds to win National League

The lineup for the Chicago Cubs seems to have the talent to win the National League Central. Now, to win the National League is a stretch. Yan Gomes as the everyday catcher? We do like Dansby Swanson at short, Nick Hoerner at second, with Happ, Bellinger and Suzuki in the outfield. This is a lineup that will be able to crush the baseball around a little bit. But, push comes to shove, betting the Cubs at 14/1 to win the National League seems a stretch.

Odds to win World Series

When looking at odds to win the World Series; the Chicago Cubs are 11th overall, and 4th best in the National League. The Cubs are +2500 to win it all. The Cubs have their one World Series for this century, so this is a dead bet. But, in all seriousness, this just does not seem like a roster ready to win a World Series. Now, keep in mind, if they do win the National League Central, getting into the dance is half the battle. You never know. But, we will take our chances and fade betting the Cubs at 25/1.
