Dodgers move to World Series favorite after landing Shohei Ohtani

The Los Angeles Dodgers spent a staggering amount of money to sign superstar Shohei Ohtani. The World Series odds say it might be worth it.

Following the 10-year, $700 million deal that Ohtani and the Dodgers reportedly agreed to, there was a predictable shift in the World Series odds at BetMGM, and the Dodgers are the new championship favorites.

The Dodgers aren't an overwhelming favorite, though. They moved from +700 to +600 (meaning a bettor who wagers $100 on the Dodgers to win the World Series would win $600).
