Who Are 2021 MLB World Series Favorites?

Los Angeles Dodgers

The Dodgers faced several injuries that hurt their lineup, which included Dustin May and Cody Bellinger. Nonetheless, they remain in good spirits as they hold a good position in the challenging NL West. They try to chase down the Giants for the top spot with the help of their deep squad.

Recently, we saw the rise and return of Tony Gonsolin from injury, which greatly helped the team achieve a competitive position. More than that, the team performed several upgrades to fix their offensive difficulties against left-handed pitching.

Chicago White Sox

Great pitching brings the Chicago White Sox on the favorites list. Despite controversies surrounding Tony La Russa, the team can produce a breakout season with the help of Carlos Rodon. More than that, their rotation is efficient enough to maintain quality pitching from the rest of the team.

The offense side is plagued with injuries, including Eloy Jimenes, Luis Robert, and Nick Madrigal, but their deep roster is enough to cover for the gaping holes left by the aforementioned. Jose Abreau and the company have been doing well as of late and are expected to play a pivotal role in their campaign towards the 2021 World Series.

Milwaukee Brewers

Milwaukee struggled to make any significant offensive threat. This was partly a result of Christian Yelich’s slow start. But the starting rotation makes up for the 29-year-old’s inefficiency. The trio of Corbin Brunes, Brandon Woodruff, and Freddy Peralta looks promising, putting the team in a good spot in the NL Central. Topping the standings and ahead of the Reds and the Cardinals.

Who Are 2021 MLB World Series Sleepers?

Philadelphia Phillies

On paper, the Phillies are overflowing with starts. But, the team is yet to see some traction in the season with plenty of inconsistencies along the way. Bryce Harper suffered through numerous injuries, while the rest of the frontline hasn’t been producing significant numbers. The starting rotation faces issues behind Zack Wheeler and Aaron Nola, but if they start to get their groove in the second half of the season, the Phillies can be a threat to any team.

Washington Nationals

The two main problems of the Nats lie within Juan Soto and Stephen Strasburg. Both face injuries issues and are not playing to their full potential. Patrick Corbin seems to have brought his erratic performances from last season, while the bullpen is yet to find its stride. We might see the team locking in deals by trading free agent Max Scherzer soon if things don’t improve soon. However, if everything works out for the team, we might see a better Nationals team after the All-Star.
