With MLB’s regular season only two weeks away, gambling sites are coming out with their seasonal odds. Sites are releasing division winner odds, world series odds, playoff odds, and even pennant odds. Even though the Pirates are still in rebuild mode, they too have odds on each of the scenarios mentioned above. 

Let’s take a look at the entire NL Central division and their odds in each of the main categories. 

These odds are brought to you by BetOnline.
