World Series odds: Dodgers' chances spike after Mookie Betts trade

0:00
0:00 / 1:27

Mookie Betts reportedly will be heading to the Los Angeles Dodgers, which immediately upped the odds for the team to win the World Series in 2020.

For the Dodgers, landing the 2018 AL MVP meant they went from +700 odds to +400 odds to win it all this season.

Los Angeles more than made up for a relatively quiet offseason with the last-minute trade with about a week left until pitchers and catchers report in a three-team blockbuster deal.

This doesn't change much around the NL West -- the Dodgers were going to be good either way. Even with part of the Betts deal sending outfielder Joc Pederson and pitcher Ross Stripling to the Los Angeles Angels, the Dodgers look stronger as the winter months finally melt away.

That means relatively good news for Giants fans, only because things aren't going to change drastically. 

The Houston Astros and New York Yankees have similar odds to win the Fall Classic, but that shouldn't be much of a surprise.

It'll be interesting to see what the Dodgers do with National League teams making some waves in the offseason. Don't sleep on those Cincinnati Reds or Atlanta Braves. 

The Dodgers were 106-56 last season, 21 games ahead of the second-place Arizona Diamondbacks. That number may not change, but now both L.A. teams possess the biggest names in the game.
