Despite missing the playoffs last year, the New York Yankees are the odds-on favorites to win the 2009 World Series according to BetUs Sportsbook<\/a>. At +450, the Bronx Bombers are followed by their hated rivals the Boston Red Sox to win the Fall Classic. The BoSox<\/span> check in at +500. <\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

BetUs<\/a> was recently named the world’s No. 1 online sportsbook<\/a> by OffshoreInsiders.com<\/a><\/span><\/font><\/b> based on customer satisfaction. <\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

The oddsmakers<\/a> believe a Subway Series is quite possible as the NY Mets are the team deemed most likely to win the final game in October from the National League. Actually they are co-NL favorites with the Cubs to end the Curse of the Billy goat at +800. <\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Further demonstrating the past results are not indicative of future performance, the defending World Champion Philadelphia Phillies are relative long shots at +1400. That ties them with last year’s breakout team, the <\/span><\/font>American<\/st1:PlaceName> League<\/st1:PlaceName> Champion<\/st1:PlaceName> Tampa<\/st1:PlaceName> Bay<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place> Devil-less Rays, also at +1400. <\/p>\n

Who will lead MLB in home runs? The Phillies Ryan Howard is +300 and the heavy (so to speak) favorite to have more four ply swats than anyone else. <\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Alex Rodriquez is +800 to put aside distractions and injuries to win the title. He is followed by Albert Pujols<\/span> and Miguel Cabrera at +1000. <\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Also included are more than 100 proposition bets from the number of David Wright home runs to Cole Hamels wins. <\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

“It’s a rotisserie baseball player’s paradise and potential goldmine,” insists Bob Warner of Lines-Maker.com<\/a>. <\/span><\/font><\/p>\n
