World Series Odds 2020: Yankees leapfrog Dodgers as favorites on the heels of best start ever in franchise history
Any baseball fan knows that New York Yankees are talented. However, many teams in the past have had a ton of talent – yet not ended up being crowned the World Series champion in the fall.
That is one honor the Bombers don’t want to see happen in 2020.
Yankees tie mark for best start in franchise history
After defeating the Boston Red Sox on Sunday evening, the Yankees improved to 7-1 on the season. That ties them with their best start to a campaign in team history.
Now the 2020 Yanks will try to make history as they shoot for an 8-1 record on Monday when they host the Phillies.
Don’t think this start hasn’t gone unnoticed by Las Vegas oddsmakers.
Yankees new favorite
The blazing start in the Bronx has helped New York officially become the new favorites to win the Fall Classic.
Once tied with Dodgers at +400, or 4/1, New York is now sitting at +350. The Dodgers lost a bit of ground as they now are currently listed at +450.
Fans don’t care about odds, just wins. Nevertheless, with this modern-day Murderers’ Row lineup, the Yankees will be feeling that pressure to win the title this October! Below are the current odds to win the 2020 World Series.
