The Los Angeles Dodgers have won the Shohei Ohtani sweepstakes after locking up the two-way superstar with an utterly jaw-dropping 10-year, $700 million contract. The latest news around the deal is that almost all of it, ($680M) will be deferred for years down the line, meaning the Dodgers can skirt the luxury tax every year and afford to pay out more players. It's a true one-of-a-kind situation with a one-of-a-kind player.
Heck, Dimers told you way back in the middle of June to parlay every futures bet you were going to make with Shohei Ohtani to win the AL MVP because he was going to win. And he did, and we won some money. Hopefully, you listened to us then and made some money, too.
Where to Bet on the Dodgers' World Series Odds
The sportsbooks know how big of a move this is as they've shortened the Dodgers' World Series odds to just +550, down from around +700 or longer depending on where you look. That kind of movement in the offseason could only come from a monumental injury or signing, which is what we've seen here. However, if you've been smart enough to listen to Dimers and get yourself multiple books as we've regularly reported via our sportsbook reviews, you might have a one-time chance to get the Dodgers at +1000 to win it all. But you'll have to be quick about it, as it will only last until the end of the day on Wednesday, December 13.
