Things we’re excited for in 2025: High-stakes baseball in Fenway Park

I can’t predict the future. Over 162 baseball games, any number of things can happen. The Texas Rangers won the World Series in 2023 and followed it up by winning 78 games without undergoing major roster turnover. The wizards that work in Las Vegas, however, can predict the future. Depending on where you look, the oddsmakers have the Red Sox odds of making the playoffs between -105 and -125. Those odds imply the Red Sox have a 50-55% chance of making the playoffs. If you want to get technical, they’re slightly lower than that because Vegas doesn’t give you fair odds.
