Way back on April 17 the lightly-regarded Pittsburgh Pirates were 125/1 longshots to win the 2012 World Series on the MLB futures at Bovada; only the Houston Astros at 150/1 were considered a worse betting option. However, the rise to prominence continues for the Bucs coming out of the All-Star Break as they’ve moved from 40/1 odds two weeks ago to a season-best 30/1 on the updated futures, and lead the NL Central division with the fourth-highest winning percentage (.565) overall in the majors.
More importantly for bettors, the Pirates hit the second half ranked as the No. 1 team against the moneyline, at home, and as a favorite on the betting odds (all statistics prior to Tuesday night).
