WORLD SERIES MVP ODDS

by Jacob, Vegas Watch

Sportsbetting.com is not very good at putting up odds. They've consistently shown this. Today, they have odds on who will win the World Series MVP. Josh Beckett is the favorite at 3:2, followed by Manny at 4:1 and Ortiz at 5:1. After that, it's gets interesting:

Pedroia has hit Boston's only HR; after Beckett, I'd say him and Ellsbury are the favorites. But look at their odds- Ellsbury is 25:1. In his column today, BP's Joe Sheehan even mentioned him as a leading candidate:

"Jacoby Ellsbury—who might go from Double-A to a World Series MVP award in three months..."

Sportsbetting clearly hasn't been paying much attention to this series- Matt Holliday is still 11:2. Do whatever you like with this information.
