After a couple of exciting wins by the Padres and Mets on Tuesday, there’s been some major upheaval in the World Series odds. 

The Padres, now up 2-1 in their best-of-five NLDS series against the Dodgers, are the new betting favorites to win the World Series with +270 odds at FanDuel Sportsbook. They opened the season at +1800 and were +500 after tying the series 1-1 on Sunday. 

The Mets, who took a 2-1 series lead over the Phillies in the NLDS yesterday, also shot up the World Series odds list and now stand at +550. They were +1000 on Monday and opened the season at +2500. 

The Yankees, who were the betting favorites heading into the Division Series at +280, are now second with +320 odds. They’re tied 1-1 with the Royals in the ALDS. 

The Dodgers have seen their odds fall the farthest, moving from +310 heading into the division series to +900 currently. They’re behind the Phillies (+750). They face a must-win game against the Padres tonight. 

Despite taking home-field advantage from the Yankees, the Royals have the lowest odds at +1100. Game 3 of that series is tonight. 

The Guardians (+950) and Tigers (+1000) round out the odds. They’re tied 1-1 in their series.
