The Nationals, Philadelphia Phillies (+275), New York Mets (+275) and Atlanta Braves (+300) all come off at 3-1 or better. The only thing the oddsmaker agree on is that the Miami Marlins (+2500) have little shot at pulling it off.The NL Central is also up in the air, with no team coming off worse than 7-1. The favorite Cardinals are followed close behind by the Chicago Cubs (+250) Mitch Haniger Jersey , Milwaukee Brewers (+300), Cincinnati Reds (+600) and Pittsburgh Pirates (+700).Of course, these odds are going to change in a significant fashion at some point. Bryce Harper and Manny Machado are not going to be free agents the entire season, and their signings will shift the landscape of division races.Harper has drawn interest from the Nationals, Phillies and Cubs, among others.

Yahoo Sports' Jeff Passan reported the San Diego Padres have made progress in Archer talks, but they still believe the asking price is too steep.Archer is having a subpar year, as he is 3-5 with a 4.31 ERA and a 1.39 WHIP in 17 starts. His strikeouts per nine innings (9.6) are down, and his walks per nine (2.9) are slightly up.The 29-year-old recently missed more than month due to anabdominal strain.However Alex Colome Jersey , his track record speaks for itself. Archer has a career 3.69 ERA, and he made the American League All-Star squad in two of the three seasons before 2018. Also, he finished fifth in Cy Young voting just three years ago.Tampa Bay is in a good position regarding Archer. It's a weak starting pitching market, and he may be the top arm available. Not only that, but Archer is also under club control through the 2021 season, and his salary won't top $11 million in that span.If he can bounce back, that's a bargain.Archer has playoff experience http://www.marinersfanproshop.com/authentic-edgar-martinez-jersey , albeit limited. He had two postseason relief appearances in 2013, allowing just one hit and striking out two in 1.2 shutout innings.The Rays (53-51) are 8.5 games back in the AL wild-card race, so they could concede and continue to build for the future. On the other hand, Archer himself can be a building block, as he is under contract for a reasonable price for the next three seasons.In other words, Tampa Bay should only deal him if an offer blows it away.
