Oddsmakers have installed the Los Angeles Dodgers as the early favorites to win the 2027 World Series, even after the Milwaukee Brewers put together a dominant championship season. The projection comes as the Dodgers continue to build around a core that includes superstars Shohei Ohtani and Mookie Betts.
The two All-Stars were pictured celebrating a home run during a July 20, 2025 matchup between the Dodgers and Brewers at Dodger Stadium, a game that highlighted the talent gap oddsmakers still see in Los Angeles' favor. Despite Milwaukee's recent title run, the Dodgers' roster depth and financial flexibility keep them at the top of future betting boards.
Published on October 29, 2026, the early outlook suggests that the Dodgers' combination of elite hitting, pitching acquisitions, and organizational stability outweighs the Brewers' recent success in the eyes of bookmakers.
