Who are the favorites to win the 2021 MLB National League Pennant?
Judging from the list of featured teams below, not one of the five teams in the NL Central made the cut as favorites to win the National League pennant this season. That just goes to show just how much more the heavyweights from the NL West and NL East want it more this year, or so it seems at least given what has transpired this 2021 MLB offseason.
Los Angeles Dodgers
The team records 24 pennant titles and 34 appearances, making them the winningest franchise in the league. They are in the running to secure their fourth NL Pennant in 5 seasons as the prevailing World Series Champions. Also, the upcoming season and its new schedule might work in their favor even more.
With a solid core team and supporting cast, they remain favorites to win the 2021 MLB National League Pennant. As of this writing, the LA Dodgers are the MLB NL pennant favorites with +170 in futures odds to win.
San Diego Padres
Another promising team this year that is also viewed as among the MLB NL pennant favorites comes in the form of the San Diego Padres, who are +425 in futures odds to win the 2021 MLB National League championship. The second-favorites to win the title won 37 of their 60 scheduled games–only 6 wins behind the Dodgers.
The squad looks strong this season thanks to GM AJ Preller. Of course, for the Padres to be able to recreate a fairytale run this season, they need several things to fall into place to overcome the Dodgers in the NL West Standings.
Atlanta Braves / New York Mets
They’re not exactly considered on the same level as the Dodgers or the Padres at this time, but it’s fair to say that the Atlanta Braves and the New York Mets have cases to be made about why they are MLB NL pennant favorites, as well. The Braves and Mets add an interesting twist to the story as both teams reside in the NL East.
