Data points presented in the graph are the average from the odds at all our trusted sportsbooks, removing the bias each book may have towards a certain team due to incoming money, presenting you with a more accurate look at each team's true odds to win the championship.

• Sep. 22: The defending AL champion Houston Astros have seen their World Series odds fade to +2200, barely in the top-ten.
• Sep. 11: The Padres (+1100) have moved into the top five, bumping out the Braves (+1433). In the AL, the Chicago White Sox (+1200) are now ahead of Central division-rival Minnesota (+1400).
• Sep. 7: There is growing separation between the Dodgers (+350) and the field.
• Sep. 1: San Diego’s World Series odds improved from +2200 to +1600 after the trade deadline, which represents a 26% increase in implied probability.
• Aug. 31: The Padres odds were sitting at +2200 heading into Monday’s trade deadline. Their many, many acquisitions – especially Mike Clevinger – will lead to shorter odds, but just how short remains to be seen.
• Aug. 17: The high-powered Twins now hold the third-best odds (+733), a position long occupied by the Astros, who have fallen to sixth-favorite (+1267).
• Aug. 10: The Athletics, who hold a five-game lead in the AL West, now have nearly identical World Series odds as the Astros (+1233 vs +1333).
• July 14: There has been interesting movement in the top ten, which now includes CIN, CHW, and LAA, but not OAK, WAS, STL, or CHC.
• June 24: The day after the MLB and MLBPA officially put in place a 60-game regular season with the standard 10-team playoff, the Yankees (+450) and Dodgers (+375) both saw their odds drop. A shorter season means increased volatility.
• May 11: The second-tier favorites have generally gotten longer with the MLB planning to play a shortened, 80-game season with an expanded playoff field. Fewer games means greater likelihood for unexpected outcomes.
• Mar. 28: Noah Syndergaard’s Tommy John surgery has hurt the Mets’ odds, falling from +1500 to around +1800.
• Mar. 11: The coronavirus pandemic has caused MLB to suspend all activities and postpone the start of the regular season by at least two weeks. Futures odds are still available at most sportsbooks.
• Mar. 5: All the spring training injuries to the Yankees (+350) have resulted in the Dodgers (+305) jumping them in the odds.
• Feb. 18: The Twins (+1600) have entered the top-five favorites. In related news, Josh Donaldson saw his AL MVP odds go from +6600 to +3300.
• Feb. 5: The Mookie Betts trade has the Dodgers closing the gap on the Yankees, going from +600 to +533. Expect them to keep trending in that direction.
• Jan. 28: After dropping as far as +750, the Astros are trending back the other way (+683) after hiring Dusty Baker as manager. The Twins have also moved up  significantly (+1567).
• Jan. 23: Houston’s odds are starting to fade somewhat, falling from +600 to +667 over the past ten days.
• Jan. 13: The Astros (+600) have not seen their odds move – yet – after the league suspended manager AJ Hinch for the entire season. But don’t expect that to be true for much longer.
• Jan. 10: Both the Dodgers (+600) and Astros (+600) have narrowed the gap somewhat on the Yankees since mid-December, but NYY is still far and away the 2020 favorite.
• Dec. 11: Signing Gerrit Cole has vaulted the Yankees well ahead of the field. NYY is as short as +325 at one online sportsbook.
• Dec. 5: The Chi-Sox have been the biggest spenders in early free agency and their odds improved slightly (+5000 to +4700).
• Nov. 20: The sign-stealing scandal swirling around the Astros has led to their 2020 odds dropping from +530 to +600. The Yankees are now the favorites at +570.
• Nov. 7: The threat of losing both Anthony Rendon and Stephen Strasburg has led to the Nats dropping from +1200 to +1300, while the Dodgers consolidated their status as NL favorites, improving from +1000 to +800.
• Oct. 31: The Astros, despite losing the 2019 World Series in seven games and facing the loss of free-agent ace Gerrit Cole, have opened as favorites at +550.
