Current Favorites
Aaron Judge (NY Yankees): Coming off a season in which he secured his second MVP award, Aaron Judge returns this season looking to offset his struggles in the World Series. Judge has proven he can lead the Yankees during the regular season, and he will have even more pressure on him this season with Juan Soto no longer on the team. Health remains of the utmost importance for the Yankees captain, as he's won two MVPs and hit 52+ home runs in the three seasons he's played at least 155 games. During his MVP last season in 2024, Judge got off to a slow start, but that has not been the case in 2025 as he is hitting .391 with a 1.248 OPS and 21 home runs.
Bobby Witt Jr. (KC Royals): In three MLB seasons, Bobby Witt has finished 7th or higher in MVP voting in two of them, as he finished second behind Judge last year. The Royals' young superstar may just be scratching the surface of his potential, and if that's the case, the league could be in trouble, as Witt hit .332 with 32 home runs and 31 stolen bases last season. To start the 2025 season, Witt Jr. boasts a .822 OPS with a 121 wRC+.
Cal Raleigh (SEA Mariners): The American League home run leader is not the current heavy favorite to win MVP; it is actually the Seattle Mariners' backstop. In 58 games, Cal Raleigh has already blasted 23 home runs and driven in 45 RBIs, while boasting a 187 wRC+. While it will take a lot for him to overtake Judge at the top of the oddsboard, Raleigh could certainly be the league's home run leader if he can keep swinging it at the level he's been.

Odds as of June 3, 2025
Current Favorites
Shohei Ohtani (LA Dodgers): Taking away the MVP award from Shohei Ohtani is going to be a challenge for any NL player for the foreseeable future. In his first season with the Dodgers, Ohtani became the first-ever player to join the 50-50 club, and to make matters even better for his chances this season, he is expected to start pitching again at some point in the year. Unsurprisingly, Ohtani has started the 2025 season strong at the dish with a .292 batting average, 23 home runs, and 182 wRC+.
Fernando Tatis Jr. (SD Padres): Tatis Jr. was on the fast track to being the face of baseball, and while that was derailed, he produced a great season in 2024. In 102 games, Tatis Jr. hit .276 with a .833 OPS and 21 home runs. If he can stay healthy this season, those numbers should certainly spike in 2025, especially if he can tap into the player he was during the playoffs. The player we saw in the postseason in 2024 carried over into the early portion of this season, and despite struggling throughout May, he is still hitting .265 with an .814 OPS and 129 wRC+.
Pete Crow-Armstrong (CHI Cubs): Athleticism and defensive ability were never a problem for the Cubs' young center-fielder. The ultimate question with Crow-Armstrong was whether his bat would ever come around, and so far this season, that answer has been a resounding yes. Crow-Armstrong is not only hitting .280 with a 141 wRC+, but he has also recorded 15 home runs and 19 stolen bases.

MLB MVP Betting Trends & Notes
Outside of Barry Bonds, who has seven, no player has won more than three MVPs in their career. Shohei Ohtani does have the chance to surpass three if he wins one more in his career.
The New York Yankees have produced the most MVP winners, with 22 in the franchise's history, including Aaron Judge in 2024.
The last player to win consecutive MVP awards in their respective league was Miguel Cabrera, who won in 2012 and 2013. Shohei Ohtani won consecutive MVPs in 2023 and 2024 but won one in each league.
In the franchise's history, the Kansas City Royals have only had one MVP winner, George Brett. That could change soon, as Bobby Witt Jr. came in second in MVP voting in 2024.
