Updated NL East Odds Analysis

<p>The Houston Astros and Tampa Bay Rays are building off strong weeks in their pursuit of winning the American League this year.</p>
<p>Below are the top ten favorites to win the American League from the <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb">FanDuel Sportsbook</a>.</p>
<h3><strong>1. Houston Astros +300 (Last week: +350)</strong></h3>
<p>It wasn&#8217;t a perfect start to the regular season for the Houston Astros, but the defending World Series champs have made up for that over the past two weeks. The Astros are 7-3 over their last ten games and have seen their odds to win the American League bet down from +350 to +300. </p>
<h3><strong>2. Tampa Bay Rays +350 </strong><strong>(Last week: +400)</strong></h3>
<p>The Tampa Bay Rays closed out their picture-perfect April atop the AL East, but they still only hold a 3.5-game lead, despite owning a 23-6 record. With their elite early season play, the Rays have again seen their American League odds rise from +400 to +350. </p>
<h3><strong>3. New York Yankees +550 </strong><strong>(Last week: +460)</strong></h3>
<p>Even though the New York Yankees sit at .500 on the year, that hasn&#8217;t stopped them from holding the third-shortest odds to win the AL. In saying that, they have seen those odds drop from +460 to +550 over the last week after suffering four straight losses. </p>
<h3><strong>4. Toronto Blue Jays +600 </strong><strong>(Last week: 650)</strong></h3>
<p>Two losses in a row for the Toronto Blue Jays shouldn&#8217;t overshadow their strong run to close out April. Toronto has posted a 7-3 record over their last ten games, and their odds to win the American League have been bet down from +650 to +600. </p>
<h3><strong>5. Minnesota Twins +850 </strong><strong>(Last week: +950)</strong></h3>
<p>The Minnesota Twins have been a positive story in the American League, which has seen them post a 17-12 record atop the AL Central. The Twins hold a +26 run differential and have continued to see their odds of winning the pennant rise from +950 to +850. </p>
<h3><strong>6. (Tie) Seattle Mariners +1400 </strong><strong>(Last week: +1200)</strong></h3>
<p>It hasn&#8217;t been a great week for the Seattle Mariners, who struggle to find consistency. They sit at 4-6 over their last ten games and have seen their odds to win the American League drop as a result of this week from +1200 to +1400. </p>
<h3><strong>6. (Tie) Los Angeles Angels +1400 </strong><strong>(Last week: +1500)</strong></h3>
<p>You&#8217;re starting to see the Los Angeles Angels bring more to the table. They&#8217;ve recorded a 6-4 record over their last ten and are now above .500 overall. As a result, the Angels&#8217; odds of winning the AL have been bet down from +1500 to +1400. </p>
<h3><strong>8. Cleveland Guardians +1800 </strong><strong>(Last week: +1800)</strong></h3>
<p>There have yet to be a lot of positives regarding the Cleveland Guardians through April. They sit at 14-15 overall but have struggled to move the needle. In saying that, better times are ahead with this roster, and they continued to boast +1800 odds to win the American League. </p>
<h3><strong>9. Texas Rangers +2000 </strong><strong>(Last week: +1600)</strong></h3>
<p>Even though the Texas Rangers have won three straight games and continue to occupy the top spot in the AL West, Bruce Bochy&#8217;s club has seen their odds to win the American League fall off, dropping from +1600 to +2000. Has <a href="https://www.numberfire.com/mlb/players/jacob-degrom">Jacob deGrom&#8217;s</a> injury altered the line that much, or does this revolve around the Astros&#8217; recent surge? </p>
<h3><strong>10. Baltimore Orioles +3000 (Last week: +4000) </strong></h3>
<p>The Baltimore Orioles continue to prove that last season was no fluke. The O&#8217;s have put together an 8-2 record over their past ten games and boast a solid 19-9 record overall. With their recent elite stretch of play, the Orioles have seen their odds to win the AL jump from +4000 to +3000. </p>
