2017 World Series Odds & Predictions – 3 Vegas Favorites to Win World Series

Los Angeles Dodgers(+300 Odds to Win 2017 World Series at Bovada) – The Dodgers appear to have all the ingredients this season to win their first World Series title since 1988. The Dodgers are currently 66-31 overall and lead the NL West by 9.5 games and their .680 winning percentage is the best in the majors. The Dodgers are on their way to earning home field advantage in the playoffs and they are a dominant 39-13 at home this season. The Dodgers strength is their pitching staff as their team ERA of 3.18 is the best in major league baseball and they have the game’s best pitcher overall in ace Clayton Kershaw. Kershaw has been absolutely dominant again this season so far with a record of 15-2 and an ERA of 2.07 to go with 166 strikeouts against only 23 bases on balls. Kershaw is currently on a 8 game winning streak and if he rolls into the postseason healthy than there is no reason that the Dodgers won’t be considered the favorites to get to the World Series and win this year.

Boston Red Sox(+600 Odds to Win 2017 World Series at Bovada) – The Red Sox enter today’s action with an overall record of 55-43 and own a 2 game lead in the American League East Division over the NY Yankees and Tampa Bay. The Red Sox offense has been inconsistent and subpar at times this season and that is a concern as they head into the home stretch of the regular season and in the playoffs if they end up qualifying. However, pitching is a different story and the Red Sox are in great position in that department. The Red Sox ace is Chris Sale and the lanky southpaw has been awesome so far this season. Sale is 12-4 with a 2.48 ERA and opponents are only hitting .195 against him while he has already struck out 200 batters in 141.1 innings pitched. The guy is legit and is the ace the Red Sox need to carry them in the postseason. The Red Sox also have a solid #2 starter in David Price who is 5-2 with a 3.39 ERA this season after missing the first couple months with an injury. The Sox also have a solid bullpen led by dominant close Craig Kimbrel who has 73 strikeouts in just 41 innings pitched while walking just 6 batters and giving up only 17 hits.

Washington Nationals(+700 Odds to Win 2017 World Series at Bovada) – The Washington Nationals are having a solid season as they come into today’s play with an overall record of 57-38 to lead the National League West Division by 10 games over Atlanta. The Nationals are a well balanced club as they have scored 530 runs which is good for 2nd in the majors and their team ERA of 4.12 is good for 11th in MLB. The Nationals have outstanding pop in their offense with three players already having 20 or more home runs led by superstar Bryce Harper with 24. Harper is batting .337 and has an OBP of .444 as he makes a case for the National League MVP this season. The co-ace of the pitching staff is powerful right-hander Max Scherzer who is 11-5 with an ERA of 2.26. The Nationals other ace is Stephen Strasburg who is 10-3 with an ERA of 3.13 giving the Nationals one of the best 1-2 starters in all of baseball. The one issue for the Nationals is the bullpen as they lack a true closer and do it by committee. That could be their downfall come the postseason unless they trade for a true closer by the trade deadline.
