The top of the World Series odds board remains mostly static as we hit mid-June.
The New York Yankees were inching closer to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the MLB odds before dropping two of three against them in the Bronx over the weekend. Still, the Bronx Bombers seem like the class of the American League.
Let's take a look at the latest World Series odds.
World Series winner odds
Favorites to win 2024 World Series
Los Angeles Dodgers (+250 to +325)
The Los Angeles Dodgers waltzed into Yankee Stadium and took two of three over the weekend series vs. the New York Yankees. The finale was within reach, too, as the Dodgers took a 3-2 lead into the bottom of the sixth before the Yankees bats exploded.
It was a nice rebound for the Dodgers, who lost two of three vs. the Pittsburgh Pirates before that clash in the Bronx.
They return home with an eight-game lead over the San Diego Padres in the NL West and square off against the reigning World Series champion Texas Rangers before the upstart Kansas City Royals come to town over the weekend.
New York Yankees (+450 to +500)
Yes, the New York Yankees lost a pair of games to the Dodgers over the weekend, but they were positively rolling before that. After salvaging a win on Sunday Night Baseball, the Yankees are 8-2 over their last 10 games, with those two losses to Los Angeles being the only blemishes.
The current concern is Juan Soto's status. The superstar outfielder is dealing with elbow inflammation and he was kept out of action for the entire three-game set against L.A., which also gives them a cushion (or excuse) for not being able to win the series.
Jasson Dominguez continues his tear in Triple-A, homering during a four-hit game on Sunday. He doesn't have an obvious path to playing time in the majors just yet, but he might force the Yankees' hands sooner rather than later.
New York hits the road this week with stops at Kauffman Stadium to face the Kansas City Royals before descending on Fenway Park for a three-game weekender vs. the Boston Red Sox.
Philadelphia Phillies (+500 to +600)
The Philadelphia Phillies split their two-game London set with the New York Mets but have otherwise been chugging along. Their lead in the NL East is a whopping nine games over the Atlanta Braves, aka the biggest gap in baseball. Without Ronald Acuna Jr., Atlanta will be hard-pressed to catch up, especially as Trea Turner nears a return from injury.
With only one day off between the last game in England and playing the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park before immediately playing three games at Camden vs. the Baltimore Orioles, the Phillies could be a bit sluggish in their return to the States. In fact, starting with Tuesday's game in Boston, Philly plays nine straight days without a break.

How to read MLB World Series futures odds
Sportsbooks will post World Series futures as soon as the previous season concludes, and some even sooner. These betting boards are constantly adjusted throughout the winter and ensuing season as players get hurt or are traded. Once the regular season begins, World Series odds will change daily as teams win and lose games, and as more players are injured or traded. Sportsbooks will also adjust the World Series odds based on handle and liability to certain teams.
World Series odds will usually look like this:
- Los Angeles Dodgers +240
This means that on a $100 bet, you'll stand to win $240 if the Dodgers win the World Series. If it's close to the end of the season or MLB has a very dominant team, you could see a minus sign (-) ahead of a team's odds.
- Atlanta Braves -150
This means that if you bet on the Atlanta Braves during the 2020 MLB season, you would have needed to bet $150 to profit $100 if the Braves won the championship.
Above we have posted the American odds for the World Series. However, these are easy to convert to decimal odds or fractional odds with our odds converter tool.

World Series Odds FAQs
The Los Angeles Dodgers are the current betting favorites with the Altanta Braves and New York Yankees next in line.
The Texas Rangers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks in five games to win the 2023 World Series.
The World Series has been a best-of-seven series with a 2-3-2 format since 1922.
Since 2017, home-field advantage has been awarded to the team with the better winning percentage in the regular season.
The cash-strapped Florida Marlins entered the 2003 season with +7,500 odds to win it all after finishing four games below .500 the year before. Oddsmakers seemed to be right as the club got off to a sluggish 16-22 start, but a managerial change and some inspired play led to a second half surge and the Fish downed the heavily-favored Yankees in six games in the Fall Classic.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have the best odds to win the 2024 World Series, followed by the Atlanta Braves, New York Yankees, Texas Rangers, and Houston Astros.
