2024 MLB MVP odds: Aaron Judge, Shohei Ohtani separate from the pack
The MLB All-Star break has come and gone, and it feels like the MVP races have already been decided.
In the American League, New York has been in a major slump. The Yankees lost 16 out of 23 games from June 19 until the beginning of the All-Star break.
However, Aaron Judge has remained sensational.

With the first half of the season in the books, the Yankees slugger has hit for .306 with 85 RBI and a league-leading 34 home runs.
Judge has been so dominant that his MVP odds shortened to -310 from -300 over the past week, despite the Yanks’ spiral.
With such a large lead at this point, perhaps a better bet would be if he can eclipse the 60 home run mark for the second time in his career.
Let’s check out the AL MVP odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of July 18.

Aaron Judge, New York Yankees: -310 (bet $10 to win $13.23 total)
