Odds September 1st
Rob 2/1 - Morrow & Myers HUGE in August. MOY locked. Enough to hold off the Overachievers?
Jeff 3/1 - Pedroia devasting loss. Pitching will decide fate. Will be hard to hold this team off.
Dave 10/1 - Lack of care is the only reason this team isn't in 1st. Still can win this thing.
Trav 20/1 - Again Hamilton only player to break G mark. Solid team that should land in 4th.
Gep 25/1 - The injury bug bit off the Dream Bucs legs. Going to be hard to stay in top 5.
Steve 25/1 - Great job managing in August. Will be fighting for a top 5 spot.
Bryce 35/1 - What a fabulous job managing this season. So many players cooled off in August.
Levi 45/1 - Ellsbury in lineup but on DL. Coach not paying attention. Lack of care.
Mike 45/1 - Stephen Drew only player to break 1,000. Need we say more?
Eric 100/1 - Konerko did break the Gmark. Sad underachieving season. Oh well.
Odds August 1st Jeff 2/1 - Powerful offense and questionable pitching. Pitching/injuries will decide fate.
Trav 4/1 - Hamilton only player to break G mark in July. Solid on both sides. Wait and hope.
Gep 4/1 - is Broxton cursed? Above average talent across the board. Pitching solidified. Could be dark horse.
Rob 5/1 - expect injuries to cause headaches. Strong history of great managing. Not enough to hold on to win.
Dave 5/1 - Lack of care is the only reason this team isn't going to win it all. Shame. Fabulous team.
Bryce 12/1 - What a fabulous job managing this season. Played the FA market like an expert. MOY candidate.
Levi 18/1 - Buster Posey only player to break Gmark in July. Jiminez cooled off. Good FA managing.
Steve 25/1 - Too passive playing the FA market. Keep it up and expect bottom 3.
Mike 30/1 - Tex only player to break Gmark. Good July for team. Outside chance of avoiding bottom 3.
Eric 30/1 - Billingsly only player to break Gmark in July. Most of those pts were on the bench. Team cooled off.
Championship Odds July 1st
Jeff 3/1 - Pedroia bounced back but too hard. Panda/Beckett/De La Rosa/Lincecum should contribute.
Rob 9/2 - Still top candidate for MoY. Pitching concerns offset with Wells/Prado/Wagner.Going to be hard to win.
Trav 5/1 - Morales a devastating blow. Plenty of talent on this team but now managing means everything.
Gep 5/1 - Santana huge addition. 3 hitters broke 1,000. Best offense in league when healthy. Dark Horse to win?
Dave 10/1 - Strong team but manager isn't/wasn't paying attention. Get into the game and win this thing!
Steve 11/1 - Great managing in June(Markakis/Peavy). Sabathia only player to break 1,000. Pitching concerns.
Bryce 11/1 - Bit by the injury bug but still lots of talent on this team. Roy cooled but should rebound.
Eric 11/1 - No one broke 1,000 in June. Holes need filling. Trade and manage FA market or this team will sink.
Levi 17/1 - Pitching is strength but not enough to climb. Injury bug biting so manager needs to take charge.
Mike 30/1 - Pitching is actually decent but the offense needs replacing. Still early enough for a makeover.
Championship Odds June 1st
Jeff 3/1 - Lincecum & Pedroia will bounce back. Balance will overcome in the end. Wieters a bust.
Rob 9/2 - Manager of the year candidate already. 2nd Tier team hanging around in Tier 1. Great managing.
Dave 5/1 - Very exciting team and good managing for once. Strasburg could put team over the top. Still a fan!
Bryce 6/1 - Pitching strength of team and good managing in May. Keep it up and good things to come.
Trav 8/1 - Morales a devastating blow. Plenty of talent on this team but now managing means everything.
Eric 8/1 - Some players have cooled but still plenty of offense and decent pitching. Great managing a must.
Gep 10/1 - Broxton came alive along with the offense. Rookie manager doing a good job. Great upside to this team.
Levi 14/1 - CGS's are keeping this team above water but hitting needs major help. Make trades!
Steve 14/1 - Pitching needs major help. Offense showed signs of life in May but perfect managing needed badly.
Mike 30/1 - Pitching is actually decent but the offense needs replacing. Still early enough for a makeover.

After Last Day in July
After Last Day in April
Odds as of May 1st
Jeff 2/1 - Lots of balance on both sides. Has enough for a title but manager known to be a loose canon.
Eric 4/1 - Strong offense but pitching is a mediocre. Buff up the pitching staff and 2nd title is possible.
Rob 9/2 - expect injuries to cause headaches all season. Strong history of great managing.
Dave 8/1 - Excited to see what Strasburg does. Lots of upside to this team. I'm a fan.
Trav 10/1 - Very slow start for several players but will rebound. Still a few holes need filling.
Bryce 10/1 - Roy is an animal but no I in team. Play FA market/trades wisely and possible dark horse for title.
Levi 12/1 - Lost a 1500pt lead in a few weeks due to lack of hitting. Find a way to strengthen offense.
Gep 14/1 - is Broxton cursed? Above average talent across the board but not enough for a title. Managing key.
Steve 14/1 - No theme to this team. Great player offset by a hole. Make something happen. Pierre/Nathan a bust.
Mike 30/1 - Where is last years Greinke? Tex always a slow starter. Better manage your butt off to contend.
