This group forecasts the regular season win totals for various Major League Baseball teams in the 2026 season. Markets specify a team and a win threshold; the market resolves to 'Yes' if the team exceeds that threshold, and 'No' otherwise.
This market will resolve according to the final regular season record of the listed team during the 2026 MLB Regular Season. If the listed team records more than the listed number of wins, the corresponding market will resolve to its corresponding “Over”. Otherwise, it will resolve to its corresponding “Under”. If at any point it becomes statistically impossible for the listed team to record more than listed number of wins per the rules of the MLB, the corresponding market will resolve to corresponding "Under". If the MLB Regular Season is cancelled, partially completed, or postponed after November 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, these markets will resolve to "50-50". The resolution source will be official information from Major League Baseball (https://www.mlb.com/standings/); however a consensus of credible reporting may also be used."
Resolution is based on Houston's total regular season wins in 2026. The team's final win total determines which outcome applies, with each threshold representing a progressively higher performance level. Ties are not counted as wins for purposes of determining the final win total.
Prices for the same outcomes can vary between Polymarket and Kalshi due to several factors. Polymarket and Kalshi can show different implied probabilities for the same outcome because of liquidity, fee structure, participant mix, and how each venue defines the contract. Each platform attracts a different user base with varying levels of expertise and information, leading to differing opinions reflected in trading activity. Market design choices, such as fees or trading limits, can also influence price discovery. Furthermore, the volume traded on each platform – currently $207,471 overall – isn’t necessarily distributed evenly across all outcomes, creating localized price pressures. These differences highlight the dynamic nature of prediction markets and the value of aggregating information from multiple sources.
Numerous events could influence trading activity in this market. Significant player injuries, trades, or managerial changes will likely cause shifts in probabilities as traders reassess team strengths. Preseason performance, including spring training results, can also provide early signals. Unexpected rule changes or shifts in league-wide offensive or pitching trends could also impact expectations. As the 2026 season progresses, actual game results and team performance will be the most significant drivers of price movement, potentially leading to substantial changes in the volume of $207,471.
