There are five reasons why the Colorado Rockies will win the World Series.

You are probably wondering how in the world are the Rockies going to win the World Series after missing the playoffs last season going only 75-87.

According to Westgate Las Vegas Superbook, the Rockies have a 50-1 odds of winning the World Series. As Lloyd said in Dumb and Dumber, “So you’re saying there’s a chance?”

Every team has a chance when it comes to winning the World Series. Obviously many things have to fall into place, especially for teams with long shot odds.

We all remember 2007, the year the Rockies won 14 of their last 15 to gain a tie breaker against the San Diego Padres. They beat the Padres and went on to sweep the next three series. They eventually made it to the World Series, but were unfortunately swept by the Boston Red Sox.

Well what if I told you that the Colorado Rockies odds of winning the World Series in 2007 was 90-1?

This is why I want to talk about five things that must fall into place for the Rockies if they want to break the odds and win the World Series.
