Ronald Acuna Jr. was -1000 to win NL MVP just a few days ago but Mookie Betts is making it a race.
Ronald Acuna Jr. had -1000 oods to win NL MVP just a few days ago.Betts pushed ahead of Acuna on Monday as the favorite to win NL MVP, coming in as a slight -145 favorite, with Acuna dropping down to +120 on“It’s been a big swing,” Eric Biggio, the lead MLB trader for Caesars Sportsbook, told The Post. “Mookie Betts has been on a roll through August and has overtaken Ronald Acuña Jr. in WAR, which is what a lot of the MVP voters will be looking at.
But Acuna must’ve heard the footsteps from Betts as his stranglehold on the MVP award began to loosen., he put up one of his best games of the season, going 4 for 5 with a home run and two stolen bases with five RBIs and four runs scored. Barring injury, Acuna is on pace for the league’s first-ever 30/60 season after stealing his 61st base Monday in the Braves’ 14-4 win over the Rockies.Acuna now sits at -120 on Caesars, while Betts comes in at +100.Betts has hit seemingly impossibly well in the month of August, going on a .446/.500/.782/1.282 tear with eight home runs, 25 RBIs and three stolen bases.
Acuna has hardly tailed off in his own right as he’s on a .343/.427/.565/.992, but the odds movement seems to be mostly unprecedented in this short of a time span without an injury at the root of the shift.
