Is there a futures bet on whether or not a team will make the playoffs?

Cuz I have a feeling you could make some dough with Milwaukee getting the Wild Card.

I've never seen one that included the wild card. I bet Milwaukee to win the pennant last year and hopefully the odds on that will still be pretty high this year. Tampa seems like a decent longshot team.

At 75-1 there is ample room to hedge in a profit if they make it to they playoffs. Then again if they get to the playoffs why mess it up with a hedge.

And with the numbers listed Milwaukee and maybe Washington both 75-1 are the only 2 that I would even consider. If I'm betting that far away I want very long odds. But these are 2 teams who can compete I think.
