The 2026 World Series odds are out, and the Los Angeles Dodgers once again lead the field. After back-to-back championships, sportsbooks have opened with the Dodgers around +370 to +375 to win a historic third straight title.
The Yankees, Phillies, and Astros trail behind Los Angeles in the early futures market. The Dodgers’ dominant roster, loaded with elite talent under long-term contracts, gives oddsmakers confidence they can stay on top heading into 2026.
Dodgers Open as Clear 2026 World Series Favorites
The Dodgers are listed around +370 across major betting boards, making them the consensus favorites to win the 2026 World Series. The Yankees follow at +750, while the Phillies and Astros sit between +1100 and +1300. Toronto, the 2025 runner-up, opens near +2000, reflecting a wider gap between them and the reigning champions.
Los Angeles’ short price is supported by roster stability. Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts, Blake Snell, and Tyler Glasnow all remain under contract. Yamamoto’s MVP-winning performance in Game 7 of the World Series only strengthened their perception as baseball’s most complete team.
Oddsmakers rarely post such strong preseason numbers in a 30-team league. A line of +370 implies roughly a 21–22 percent chance of winning the title — extremely high by MLB standards. However, futures odds can shift throughout the offseason based on trades, injuries, and free-agent signings.
Can the Dodgers Make History With a Three-Peat?
If the Dodgers win another title in 2026, they will achieve one of baseball’s rarest feats — three consecutive World Series championships. Only two franchises have ever done it: the New York Yankees, who accomplished the feat three times, and the Oakland Athletics, who won three straight from 1972 to 1974.
No National League team has won three straight since the Cincinnati Reds’ run in the 1970s. The Dodgers, already the first NL team to repeat since those Reds, now have a chance to carve their place among baseball’s all-time dynasties.
As 2026 begins, Los Angeles stands atop the MLB world. With a healthy, star-studded core and the league’s deepest rotation, the Dodgers enter spring training as clear favorites — and a legitimate threat to make baseball history.
