Analysis

5d ago

The Tigers are priced at 43¢ with an exceptionally high implied yield of 272% on the yes side, suggesting significant underpricing relative to their competitive outlook or substantial tail risk priced in. With only $7.4 in 24-hour volume against $1.02M open interest and a 9¢ spread, liquidity is extremely thin for a market with 178 days to expiration, creating potential slippage for meaningful position sizes. The realized volatility of 248% combined with a vol ratio of 1.48 indicates elevated uncertainty, though the recent 3¢ price decline over seven days and neutral regime score suggest the market hasn't yet settled on a clear directional conviction.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the team that wins the 2026 MLB American League Central division. In the event of a tie, this market will resolve according to the official winner as determined by MLB rules. If multiple winners are announced then this market will resolve to the team whose listed nickname comes first alphabetically. If at any point it becomes impossible for a listed team to be named the 2026 American League Central division champion per the rules of the MLB (e.g., they are eliminated in the playoffs), the corresponding market will resolve to “No”. If the 2026 MLB regular season is cancelled, postponed after October 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or there is otherwise no winner declared within that timeframe, this market will resolve to “Other”. The primary resolution source will be official information from Major League Baseball (https://www.mlb.com/); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
