The question of how much does the start of the season affect teams. For example if your team starts the season with a losing record, you may think he has all year to turn it around, but what if I told you that the last out of the last only one has started their first 10 games with a losing record and eight have had six or more wins in their first 10 games. So if your team doesn't have a winning record at the beginning of the year their chances may drop drastically for a World Series title. Conversely, if your team has six or more wins, your team's odds to win the World Series go up. All in all, the beginning of the MLB season can significantly alter your odds to win the world series.
