The Los Angeles Dodgers are currently leading the way as favorites to win the 2024 World Series after a standout offseason. DraftKings Sportsbook recently released their odds for the upcoming season, with the Dodgers at +350, followed closely by the Atlanta Braves at +450 and the Houston Astros at +750. In contrast, the 2023 World Series teams, the Texas Rangers and Arizona Diamondbacks, are further down the list at +1500 and +4000, respectively.
The Dodgers have made significant moves during the offseason to create what many are calling a modern-day superteam. They secured a historic 10-year, $700 million deal from two-time American League MVP Shohei Ohtani, adding him to a lineup that already boasts former MVPs Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman. Additionally, the team signed highly sought-after Japanese pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto and acquired Tyler Glasnow from the Tampa Bay Rays to bolster their rotation while Clayton Kershaw recovers from shoulder surgery.
Despite being a dominant force in MLB for years, the Dodgers have not had postseason success in recent seasons since winning the 2020 World Series. Even with over 100 wins in the last two seasons, they were eliminated from the NLDS both years. It remains to be seen if this year’s roster can deliver on their World Series frontrunner status and bring home another championship.
