DraftKings Sportsbook has recently released a ton of awesome future bets. They have all the classic ones like odds on the World Series champion, AL/NL pennant odds, and odds on the Divisional Champion. You can also get wagers on the over/under win totals and the likelihood of teams making the playoffs. For players, you can bet on all the major awards such as MVP, Cy Young, and Rookie of the Year.

However, some of the most fun bets are the head-to-head future odds for players and teams. Currently, DraftKings is offering wagers on which player will hit more home runs and which team will have more wins in the regular season. These are some fun wagers that you can make some big bucks on.

As I prepare for my voyage into the Vegas desert, it’s that time of year to look at the futures bets for 2020. 2019 was a terrific betting season for me as I only missed 2 non-World Series winner bets (mostly win totals and prop bets). Realistically, the divisional, pennant, and World Series winners are typically poor bets given the restricted payouts and less likely occurrence than regular season win totals or player vs player prop bets.

Divisional
There are some nice values that can be had from betting divisional winners. Unfortunately, a number of the divisions have pretty clear favorites and aren’t worth the odds. Many times, you have to take the second or third option in the division to make any money. Not a place where I put a lot of money for futures bets, but a couple of gems can be found each season, a la the Twins last season.
