Will the Minnesota Twins win more than 80.5 games in the 2026 MLB Regular Season?
Prediction markets currently give a 36% probability that Will the Minnesota Twins win more than 80.5 games in the 2026 MLB Regular Season?. This contract trades at 36¢ on Polymarket, closing October 5, 2026. The Yes position at 33¢ offers an extreme 439% risk-adjusted implied yield, but this appears driven by illiquidity rather than genuine mispricing—the 28¢ spread is substantial and 24-hour volume sits at zero despite $939k open interest.
Analysis
The Yes position at 33¢ offers an extreme 439% risk-adjusted implied yield, but this appears driven by illiquidity rather than genuine mispricing—the 28¢ spread is substantial and 24-hour volume sits at zero despite $939k open interest. The 7-day price movement from 26¢ to 33¢ combined with 267% realized volatility suggests this market is thinly traded with outsized moves on minimal order flow, making the high yield potentially illusory for practical traders. With 169 days to expiry and a neutral regime, the market likely needs significant new information (Twins roster moves, injury updates) to generate meaningful volume and tighten the spread.
Resolution rules
This market will resolve to "O 80.5" if the Minnesota Twins win more than 80.5 games during the 2026 MLB Regular Season. If at any point it becomes statistically impossible for the Minnesota Twins to record more than 80.5 wins per the rules of the MLB, the corresponding market will resolve to "U 80.5". If the MLB Regular Season is cancelled, partially completed, or postponed after November 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market 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.
