MLB Odds: Dodgers Chase Illusive NL West Division Lead

With no shortage of momentum, the Los Angeles Dodgers
will take on the San Diego Padres this weekend. If they’re lucky,
they’ll get a chance to close the gap between themselves and the NL
West-leading San Francisco Giants. Are L.A.’s 7/1 odds to win the World
Series foretelling or just overly ambitious?

Neck and neck with the Giants in the sportsbook, the
Dodgers trail by four games in the standings. That’s why the Dodgers
will need to pad their win total against the struggling Padres while
they can.

Los Angeles has long been a popular MLB betting
option and while they’ve looked solid in 2014, the Giants have looked
spectacular. As a result, the two clubs are tied for second in World
Series futures. The Dodgers are +125 to win the division, slightly
behind the San Francisco Giants (-200).

The Padres have made news of late. Former San
Diego’s Tony Gwynn’s life is being celebrated after the legendary Hall
of Famer passed away this week. The team hasn’t enjoyed much success on
the field, and that bodes well for Dodgers fans hungry to advance in the
standings.
