Baseball fans can’t wait for the start of the new MLB season, as it’s set to kick off on March 20, with the playoffs to begin on October 1. There have been a lot of interesting trades in the off-season, so it’s expected to be a fun season. The Los Angeles Dodgers are the early favorites to win the 2024 World Series.
The Los Angeles Dodgers signing Shohei Ohtani for a record-breaking $700 million for 10 years this off-season was shocking. They had 100 regular-season wins last year, and they have improved their team even more now. The Arizona Diamondbacks are another team that have improved a lot in the off-season, as they have signed Eduardo Rodriguez and Eugenio Suarez and re-signed Lourdes Gurriel Jr. The New York Yankees have also improved after trading for Juan Soto.
Here are the latest odds for the winner of the 2024 MLB World Series championship:
The Los Angeles Dodgers are unsurprisingly the favorites, according to the best MLB betting sites. They now have four MVPs on the roster, and they have everything in place for them to succeed this season. The Atlanta Braves topped the National League standings last season with a 104-58 record. They had some good additions in the off-season and will be one of the big contenders.
The Houston Astros have had a quiet off-season, as they have kept most of their key pieces on the roster and didn’t have a lot of additions. They went all the way to the American League Championship Series last season, but they lost in the end to the Texas Rangers and failed to qualify for the World Series. The Texas Rangers are the defending champions this season after winning the 2023 World Series. That was the first-ever championship win for the Rangers, and they will be trying to win it in back-to-back years.
