The ten postseason slots in Major League Baseball have been set for 2019, and some of the preseason favorites are out (Philadelphia in the National League East and Cleveland in the American League Central, for example). So is the defending World Series champion, as Boston’s winter starts early. Some of the expected teams are in, of course, as the Dodgers, Yankees and Astros are in, and there are some upstarts as well, including the Twins, Rays and A’s. With the Chicago Cubs missing the postseason, manager Joe Maddon, who took the Cubs to the postseason four straight years and ended that long World Series drought, is out. We have the 2019 World Series odds for each of the ten postseason contenders as well as thoughts on several of the teams.
