The New York Yankees are the favorites to win the World Series for the first time this season after moving ahead of the Los Angeles Dodgers this week.
The Dodgers are the World Series favorites at +450, while the Yankees are the World Series favorites at + 400. The Dodgers haven't been World Series favorites in the regular season since July of 2020.
The Yankees began the season with a 12-1 record, but have gone on to win eight of their last nine games. The Yankees went 22-6 in June, their best winning percentage in any calendar month in over 50 years. The Yankees have started July with a winning percentage of.700 or higher six times. Five times they won the World Series.
The Yankees became the new favorite due to their performance and money, according to Eric Biggio. It seems like all Yankees futures money is on the bet ticker after a big win. You can't blame them. They have it going.
The Yankees have attracted 45 World Series wagers of at least $1,000, including a $20,000 wager in Nevada earlier in the season. The only team that gets a lot of money? They have 46. The Mets are favored to win the World Series and are 7-1 to do so. The Mets and Yankees are the two teams that have received the most money on the World Series.
Biggio said that the Yankees increase handle for the futures pool. It's a dream scenario for bookies and TV ratings. The Dodgers and Astros are also in the running. I'm sure the executives at MLB are licking their wounds. It's likely that anything that's good for ratings is good for the bookmaker. If the Yankees played the Dodgers in the World Series, the handle would go through the roof.
