Early odds favor the Los Angeles Dodgers to win the 2023 World Series

HOUSTON — It’s never too early to look ahead as the Houston Astros prepare to defend their title.

The Los Angeles Dodgers. Again.

The NLCS-winning Philadelphia Phillies are +1400, while Houston’s ALCS foe, the New York Yankees, are +1000.

Houston does face some questions ahead of 2022 MLB Winter Meetings.

Astros ace Justin Verlander signed a two-year contract last offseason but has a player option for 2023.

There’s also outfielder Michael Brantley who had season-ending shoulder surgery back in August. Lefty reliever Will Smith has a club option for 2023, according to Spotrac. And both trade deadline acquisitions Trey Mancini and Christian Vázquez are set to hit free agency as well.

Fan-favorite Yuli Gurriel rounds out the notable free agents as the first baseman will be 39 years old in June of next season.
