The Mariners Postseason Odds Are Dwindling According To Sportsbooks

The Seattle Mariners are quickly fading from playoff contention. After blowing a 10 game division lead and falling behind the Houston Astros, the Mariners decided to blow things up by firing manager Scott Servais. At the beginning, it felt like it was a good shot of energy, but the Mariners are 5-5 in their last 10 games, sitting 5 games back of Houston, and 4.5 games out of the wild card. According to ESPN, the Mariners sit at just a 12% chance of making the playoffs. But, let's take a look at what sportsbooks are saying about the Mariners' chances.

The Mariners are now all the way down to +950 to win the AL West division. Basically 10/1 odds. The oddsmakers are in a way giving the Mariners no chance of winning this division, barring a miracle. To win the American League, the Mariners are now +5500, and to win the World Series the Mariners are +10000. Basically, the Mariners chances of winning are none. And it goes back to show, the Mariners are in a city filled with some of the richest people in the world. The Mariners front office? Well, it's just filled with some of the cheapest people in baseball.
