See who is the favorite in the Yankees vs. Dodgers World Series odds

It’s a renewal of the East Coast-West Coast rivalry, this time in the World Series.

Replace the microphones with baseball bats and swap producers with managers Aaron Boone and Dave Roberts.

The Dodgers are slightly favored to win the World Series at odds of -130, while the Yankees are back at +110 at BetMGM.

Unsurprisingly, oddsmakers expect this one to go deep, with over 5.5 games at -190 odds, while the seven-game series is priced at +200 odds.

The teams faced off in The Bronx this season, with the Dodgers taking two of three.

The streaky Yankees were in the middle of a hot streak at the time and had won eight straight going into the series.

Los Angeles was also much healthier then, with pitchers Gavin Stone and Tyler Glasnow on the mound in that series.

Both pitchers are out for the remainder of the season due to injury, while the Yankees have made perhaps the most important addition since then, bringing in Jazz Chisholm.

Naturally, the two teams are led by their boppers in the middle of the lineup.

The Dodgers have stars Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman and Teoscar Hernandez, while the Yankees boast Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, Giancarlo Stanton and Chisholm to compete in the star-studded World Series.

Ohtani is the clear favorite to win the World Series MVP (+220), followed by Judge (+500) and Soto (+550).

Mets killer Tommy Edman dominated the NLCS and gets a ton of respect for winning MVP at odds of 30/1, a top-10 number.

Game 1 is scheduled for Friday evening in Los Angeles and the Yankees start with star Gerrit Cole.
