Every National League Team's Odds to Make or Miss the Playoffs to Start Second Half
By Ben Heisler
It's been a wild ride through the first half of the season for the Philadelphia Phillies.
With a lineup designed this offseason to mash the baseball, the Phillies struggled out of the gate, eventually firing manager Joe Girardi with a 22-29 record at the beginning of June.
Since then, Philadelphia has gone 27-14; slotting itself in the final National League Wild Card spot ahead of the St. Louis Cardinals.
But which of those two teams fighting for the postseason do oddsmakers believe has the better chance of making the postseason? What about the rest of the teams in baseball's Senior Circuit?
Here's a look at every National League team's betting odds to both make, as well as to miss the MLB postseason. You can find every American League ballclub's betting odds for the postseason HERE.
Teams are sorted by win percentage throughout their respective divisions; going from the East to the Central, and finishing with the West division.
