Padres World Series Odds: Where Are They?

World Series odds are fun. It’s fun to see where your team stacks up and if you’re so inclined make a bet to try and make some cash later. With all the moves the Padres have made, what are their odds? Where do they stack up?

Well, according to Bovada, they are at 25-1. The same odds as the New York Yankees and the defending AL Champion Kansas City Royals. They are ahead of two teams who made the playoffs last year in the Pittsburgh Pirates (33-1) and Oakland Athletics (40-1). The Washington Nationals are the current favorites at 6-1.
