The American League West continues to run through the Houston Astros, who are betting favorites (+120) to win the division based on the latest MLB odds at the BetMGM online sportsbook.

The Astros won their fourth consecutive division crown in 2024. They have won the AL West in each of the past seven full seasons, not counting the COVID-shortened campaign in 2020 when the Athletics won the division.

Hereโ€™s a look at the latest MLB lines for the 2025 AL West winner:

According to the latest MLB division odds, the Astros are +120 favorites to win the AL West for the fifth straight season. When the markets were first released in late October, they opened with a +160 price tag.

  • 2023: -185
  • 2022: -165
  • 2021: +130
