DraftKings puts Rays, Yankees atop AL pennant market
The Dodgers lead the National League market, with the Brewers close behind as Milwaukee pursues a first 100-win regular season.
DraftKings Sportsbook’s 2026 pennant odds, published on 15 September, place the Tampa Bay Rays and New York Yankees narrowly ahead in the American League. The Rays are listed at +300 and the Yankees at +310.
The Los Angeles Dodgers lead the National League market at +110, while the Milwaukee Brewers are second at +380. The odds represent a bookmaker’s market assessment rather than a confirmed prediction of the postseason outcome.
The Rays and Yankees are also competing for the AL East and are scheduled to meet in a four-game series in New York from 22 to 24 September. Fox Sports reported that the series could carry implications for the division race and the American League’s top playoff seed, but its eventual significance is not settled.
Milwaukee can reach its first 100-win regular season by going 7–5 or better across its final 12 games. The Brewers have never won an NL pennant, while the Dodgers have claimed five of the past nine.
An AL East team has won the AL pennant in each of the past two seasons, with the Yankees prevailing in 2024 and the Toronto Blue Jays in 2025. Fox Sports disclosed that it may receive compensation from legal sports-betting partners in connection with the published odds.
