Washington Nationals Odds to Win the 2013 World Series at 55-1

The Washington Nationals odds to win the 2013 World Series were at 55-1, harking back on the time many years ago when the then Florida Marlins entered the later part of the MLB season a 100-1 long shot to win the World Series and ultimately they did just that.  BetOnline was the online sportsbook still offering the Nationals at 55-1 odds and Gambling911.com strongly suggests locking this price in now as it surely won’t last. 

The Nationals have been on fire of late after a lackluster performance throughout much of the season.  They have won 9 of their last 10 games and are ten wins above .500. 

Washington’s win earlier in the day brought them within 4.5 games of the Cincinnati Reds for National League’s second Wildcard berth with just 12 games remaining.  The Nationals were still playing a second game as part of a double header Tuesday at press time.  The afternoon game had been postponed due to the tragic Navy Yard shooting nearby that Nationals stadium.
