What Teams Can Win the 2021 MLB World Series? Best Bets, Sportsbook Odds, Predictions and Probabilities

With Major League Baseball Opening Day right around the corner, it’s time to look at which teams our predictive analytics model has identified as the most likely 2021 MLB World Series Champions. We break down the probabilities, odds and best bets for MLB Futures bettors.

Scroll down for a write up on a few teams that our model is liking as well the probabilities for all 30 teams!

Let’s tuck into a few of the teams that are currently presenting value according to our data👇

⚾ LA Dodgers (+350 with BetMGM)

It should be a surprise to absolutely nobody that DimersBOT has the Dodgers as the most likely team to win the title this season, with Mookie and co. coming in at a 13.1% chance.

The Dodgers will of course have to become the first back-to-back winners since the Yankees won three in a row from 1998-2000, and as it stands don't look like a bet at +350 odds. A couple of losses at any point during the season, when the picture is much clearer, will mean you'll probably get better than the current +350 on offer.

⚾️ Atlanta Braves (+1400 with BetMGM)

BEST BET: Our predictive analytics model has the Braves down as the best bet to place right now, viewing them as almost the same probability as the Dodgers, whilst being available at much better odds. We have them rated as a 12.1% chance.

After falling one round (and one win) short of reaching the World Series in 2020, the Atlanta Braves are out to go a couple of steps further in 2021. They of course had a positive off-season with the additions of Charlie Morton and Drew Smyly, as well as re-signing Marcell Ozuna.

While you're over at BetMGM, we highly recommend you take advantage of this offer where you can receive $1 for EVERY home run hit on Opening Day!

⚾ New York Yankees (+550 with BetMGM)

There's a lot of negative noise around the Yankees right now, with the rotation behind Gerrit Cole not looking quite up to scratch according to many experts.

At odds of +550, and less than a 10% chance of winning the title according to our model, like the Dodgers, the New York Yankees are another team that don't currently present value for bettors.

🔥🔥🔥
⚾ Houston Astros (+2200 with BetMGM)

BEST VALUE: The next best value comes in the form of the Houston Astros, who our model has as the fifth best team in the league, as opposed to eighth place where the sportsbooks have them rated.

Houston is currently on a four-year run of making the ALCS, and with a lot of their core nearing the end of their peaks, it's likely that they will go all out to win the title this season.

The benefit of signing up to multiple sportsbooks has never been clearer! Although the best odds available on the Astros are with BetMGM, this next offer comes from DraftKings Sportsbook.

Every Team's Chance of Winning the World Series

🔥
⚾ Boston Red Sox (+7500 with PointsBet)

BEST DARK HORSE: Our best long shot play for the 2021 World Series is the franchise now partly owned by NBA superstar LeBron James.

This one comes down to simple math, with our model giving the Red Sox a 3.2% chance which equates to odds of around +3000, meaning we're getting DOUBLE the value on Boston - that's call an edge, and a big one at that.

Our $100 Betting Strategy:

Braves: Bet $60 with BetMGM to win $660

Astros: Bet $30 with BetMGM to win $690

Red Sox: Bet $10 with PointsBet to win $610‍
