With baseball season around the corner — just a tad bit further away than anticipated — hopes of a Rockies’ World Series win is sinking, according to one oddsmaker.

Bovada on Sunday had Colorado at 150-to-1 odds to win it all in 2020, placing the Rox at No. 23 of 30 teams. That means if they take it all, a $10 bet would net a $1,500 win.

In other bets, the Rockies are 28/1 to win the National League West, fourth behind the Los Angeles Dodgers (1/9), Arizona Diamondbacks (8/1) and San Diego Padres (11/1). The Giants bring up the rear at 50/1. To win the NL pennant, Colorado has 66/1 odds.

In individual honors, Nolan Arenado is the 11th favorite to have the most home runs this year at 20/1 (Mike Trout is first at 9/1). Trevor Story is tied for 20th at 40/1 odds.

Arenado is eighth among NL MVP favorites at 18/1 (Dodgers’ Mookie Betts is No. 1 at 7/2). Story chimes in at No. 18 at 50/1.

German Marquez has the 15th-best odds at winning the Cy Young at 40/1. Mets’ Jacob DeGrom leads at 15/4 odds.

There is one Colorado player that has a decent shot. Infielder Brendan Rodgers is second to win the Rookie of the Year award at 10/1 behind Dodgers shortstop Gavin Lux.
