If you bet on Shohei Ohtani to win American League MVP, congratulations, you're already a winner even though the MLB regular season doesn't end until Oct. 1.
Per Darren Rovell of The Action Network, PointsBet took down the market for AL MVP betting on Thursday night and declared all bets for Ohtani to be winners.
Rovell noted by the All-Star break, Ohtani's had 87.5 percent implied odds to win the award when the line dropped to -700 (bet $700 to win $100).
"That price was even inflated from its true figure," Rovell wrote. "That's because if Ohtani was traded to the National League before the deadline, the AL MVP was very likely to have been given to someone else, with more than two months of the season left to go.
