MLB MVP Odds & Favorites 2025: Raleigh Becomes New Favorite as Judge Hits IL
The biggest story in baseball - and, therefore, with the MLB MVP odds - is that Aaron Judge has been placed on the injured list, and Cal Raleigh is the new favorite in the American League as a result.
- Judge has been absolutely unreal this season, but this injury has caused plenty of concern for those who backed him with preseason bets to win MVP
- Raleigh has stormed up the oddsboard, from trading at a price significantly longer than +10000 to now being the minus-money favorite
- Meanwhile, Shohei Ohtani is storming away in the NL
- Ohtani continues to go deeper into games as a starting pitcher and he's hitting home runs for fun
- Pete Crow-Armstrong and Kyle Schwarber present the toughest challenges, but their odds reflect how big of a long shot either of them is
