While the regular-season MVP awards seem to be all but locked up, there is still the matter of NLCS and ALCS MVP, with the World Series MVP race on the horizon.
Shohei Ohtani is the heavy favorite to win the National League regular-season MVP, and he’s also atop the oddsboard in the NLCS race.
However, while Aaron Judge has the regular-season American League MVP award all but wrapped up, he has some competition from a few teammates in the ALCS MVP tilt.
Check out the odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Oct. 17.
2024 NLCS MVP ODDS:
Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers: +190 (bet $10 to win $29 total)
Kike Hernandez, Dodgers: +700 (bet $10 to win $80 total)
Francisco Lindor, Mets: +750 (bet $10 to win $85 total)
Mookie Betts, Dodgers: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)
2024 ALCS MVP ODDS:
Juan Soto, Yankees: +140 (bet $10 to win $24 total)
Aaron Judge, Yankees: +165 (bet $10 to win $26.50 total)
Gleyber Torres, Yankees: +900 (bet $10 to win $100 total)
Carlos Rodon, Yankees: +1100 (bet $10 to win $100 total)
The rapid nature of the MLB postseason causes the odds to shift day-to-day, but as of Thursday morning, Ohtani and Soto remained the favorites.
Through three games in the NLCS, Ohtani has one home run and four RBIs. His massive three-run homer in Game 3 opened things up for the Dodgers to take a 2-1 series lead.
Moving into second on the NL oddsboard is his teammate Kike Hernandez, who also hit a blast in Game 3.
As for the ALCS, Soto has one home run, three hits and an RBI through two games.
Judge is second on the AL oddsboard, despite not tallying a hit in Game 1 against the Guardians. He hit his first home run of the postseason in Game 2 and now has four RBIs in the series.
His odds went from +400 before Game 2 to +165 after it.
