Draft Lottery question: Eligibility of the NY Mets?

[Cardinals4Life]

Per mlb.com, if the Mets "win the lottery" they get to keep that spot, and their second pick moves down 10 slots.

oh my...Seattle won from the 17th spot last year, so Mets are a threat to bumping us down...the odds are unlikely, but again...M's in 2025, Reds in 2024. It has happened

Only 15 spots I believe this time with the 3 that were eliminated.

Here are the odds of each eligible team receiving the first overall pick in next summer’s draft, per MLB.com:

White Sox – 27.73%
Twins – 22.18%
Pirates – 16.81%
Orioles – 9.24%
Athletics – 6.55%
Braves – 4.54%
Rays – 3.03%
Cardinals – 2.35%
Marlins – 1.85%
Diamondbacks – 1.51%
Rangers – 1.34%
Giants – 1.01%
Royals – 0.84%
Mets – 0.67%
Astros – 0.34%

Give me $20 down on the Mets winning. That 0.67% seems a little low considering what rules are being adjusted for them accordingly.

??? They have less than 1% of winning the lottery, not 67%.
