Based on MLB’s 60-game regular season, the oddsmakers at BetOnline.ag set the over-under at 25½ wins for the Pittsburgh Pirates, projecting a last-place finish in the NL Central.

With the shortened season, the oddsmakers expect many teams to have the same records.

The teams projected to have the best records are the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees at 38½ wins each, with the worst records by the Baltimore Orioles and Detroit Tigers at 21½ wins.

The St. Louis Cardinals are favored to win the NL Central with 32½ wins, followed by the Chicago Cubs, Cincinnati Reds and Milwaukee Brewers at 31½ wins.

The Minnesota Twins are favored to win the AL Central with 34½ wins, followed by the Cleveland Indians (32½), Chicago White Sox (31½), Kansas City Royals (24½) and the Tigers (21½).
