What Are the Payout Odds MLB National League MVP? (2023)

Make no mistake about it, Atlanta Braves Ronald Acuna Jr is a massive -800 favorite to be named National League Most Valuable Player (MVP).  This means he's pretty much a "lock" but the risk will be substantial.  You will need to bet $80 to win $10 with the slightest possibility he won't be named MVP.  That $80 is returned.  You profit $10 for every $80 bet.

Barring a miracle, only Freddie Freeman has a shot at this thing with payout odds of +425.  One would bet $10 to win $42.50.  Should he win, you get back your $10 plus $42.50. 

Ronald Acuna Jr         -800
Freddie Freeman         +425     
Matt Olson         +2500     
Mookie Betts         +2500    

Acuna Jr currently owns a .340 batting average.  He has 26 home runs this season.

As this goes to press, the Braves have a commanding 9 1/2-game lead over the Phillies.  Nine of the Braves hitters have double-digit home runs.  It should come as no surprise that Atlanta has two candidates for MVP, Matt Olson being the other at 25-1 odds.

BetOnline is also offering odds on the National League Cy Young with Zac Gallen and Blake Snell co-favorites with payout potentials between $25 and $30 for every $10 bet.

Zac Gallen         +250     
Blake Snell         +275     
Justin Steele         +475     
Logan Webb         +500     
Spencer Strider         +500     
Corbin Burnes         +1200     
Zack Wheeler         +2000
