  • Shohei Ohtani is the betting favorite to win World Series MVP.

Anything can happen in postseason baseball. That’s especially true when it comes to the World Series MVP award.

While the top players on the World Series odds favorites lead this market, it’s an award that has been won by a variety of different players in the past.

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman won the 2024 World Series MVP while playing with a sprained ankle.

Corey Seager won the 2023 World Series MVP, carrying the Texas Rangers from the No. 5 seed to their first championship in franchise history. Jorge Soler won the award in 2021 after being traded from the Kansas City Royals to the Atlanta Braves.

It’s an impossible award to predict, but a fun one to bet on given the favorable odds.

Here’s a look at the latest World Series MVP market:
