Odds to Win 2011 NL Pennant: With the San Francisco Giants failing to make it to the postseason, we will have a new pennant winner in the National League this year. 162 games, three division kings and a Wild Card winner later, we have the best Odds to Win 2011 NL Pennant!
This year’s division winners are: Philadelphia Phillies in the East, Milwaukee Brewers in the Central, and the Arizona Diamondbacks claimed the West. Thanks to a surge and a Braves collapse late in the season, the St. Louis Cardinals will be a very dangerous Wild Card this postseason.
The National League’s Divisional Series will consist of the following matchups: with the best record in all of baseball, the Phillies will take on the “Wild Cards” and the Brew Crew will battle the feisty D-Backs in Round 1. Philly will have home-field advantage and so will Milwaukee.
So, who do you think MLB Odds makers believe will represent the NL in the 2011 World Series? Keep in mind that because of the 2011 All Star game results, the National League will enjoy home-field advantage in this year’s Fall Classic!
The Philadelphia Phillies have been the best team in baseball, record-wise, throughout the entire season. After winning over 100 games, Charlie Manuel’s club will enter the MLB 2011 Postseason as the overwhelming betting odds favorites to take the triangular banner. The Philadelphia Phillies are have a whopping 4/7 Odds to Win the 2011 NL Pennant!
