It may be the divisional series in the MLB playoffs, but World Series MVP odds are already out.
The Padres’ red-hot superstar Fernando Tatis Jr. is the favorite to win World Series MVP at Bet365 Sportsbook with +800 odds, followed by Aaron Judge (11/1) and Juan Soto (12/1).
Oddsmakers still expect Judge, who has struggled dramatically in the playoffs for the last few years, to turn it around if the Yankees should clinch a World Series berth.
Tatis is favored after hitting another home run against the Dodgers and leading the squad to 2-1 series lead in the best-of-five versus the Dodgers.
San Diego is non-coincidentally the World Series favorite across the sports betting market as they look to clinch an NLCS berth for the second time in three years.
For those looking to wager on the other Big Apple team, Francisco Lindor is far and away the favorite among the Mets to win World Series MVP at 14/1 odds.
The next-highest Met in terms of World Series MVP odds is Pete Alonso, who is 30/1 to win.
