The MLB Postseason is here, and that means the World Series Winner Odds are narrowed down and will be changing daily, sometimes even during games. We’re a long way from the opening lines, but there is still a ton of value to be found, especially if you use the BettingPros Consensus Odds to see which sportsbook currently has the best odds.
All four Wild Card Round matchups resulted in sweeps, with the Rangers, Twins, Phillies and Diamondbacks ousting the Rays, Blue Jays, Brewers and Marlins, respectively. Let’s take a look at the current MLB World Series Odds after yesterday’s action.

What is a Futures Bet?
The vast majority of sports betting is done on single games occurring in the near future. Futures bets are wagers on future events and are decided by a large number of games rather than just one. Futures bets are usually on end-of-season results, such as a team winning a championship or a player winning an award. It is difficult to win, so odds are low, and futures bets generally have large payouts.
Advantages of Futures Bets
One of the advantages of futures bets is that they are impacted less by variance. When betting on a team to win one game, the outcome can be heavily swayed by a variety of random events - a ball bounces the wrong way, a bad call, weather, etc.
