The Houston Astros playoff odds have dropped dramatically since the beginning of September. Heading into the final month of the season, the Astros' chances of making back to the MLB Postseason for the ninth year in a row were sitting at 88.4% according to FanGraphs. Those odds have now dipped to 43.9%.
The Astros were just embarrassed by the AL West's basement-dwellers, the Athletics, and their hopes of winning the division have all but disappeared. While their chances of playing in October are a little less than 50%, Houston's chances to win the AL West are sitting at 0.
