National League MVP Favorites

NL MVP odds are updated every 15-60 minutes, with odds provided by FanDuel, BetMGM, and DraftKings Sportsbook, among others. 

NL MVP Race Timeline

  • September 26 – Shohei Ohtani (-20000) is still the overwhelming favorite going into the final weekend of the season, but Kyle Schwarber (+1900) and Juan Soto (+2500) are still getting odds at most sportsbooks.
  • September 12 – Ohtani is once again in a league of his own. If you find a book still offering NL MVP odds, they’ll likely be in the range of -15000 for the Dodgers’ two-way superstar.
  • July 17 – Shohei Ohtani’s hold on the NL MVP continues to loosen; coming out of the break, the Dodger phenom is now getting just -1100, while PCA continues to lurk at a season-low +700.
  • May 7 – Pete Crow-Armstrong is making some noise in Chicago. Ove the past month, PCA has hit .305 and belted 9 home runs, as his average NL MVP odds went from +10250 to +4917.
  • April 10 – Kyle Tucker, last week’s NL Player of the Week, has seen his odds shorten from +1583 to +910, moving him into the Top 5 for NL MVP odds.
  • February 24 – Last season’s unanimous NL MVP, Shohei Ohtani, is currently getting +170 to win the award again in 2025. The Dodgers’ two-way dynamo is ahead of the Mets’ Juan Soto (+550) and the Padres’ Fernando Tatis Jr (+800).
