Fact Checked by Cody Kutzer

After falling apart in the second half of the season last year, what are the Red Sox's playoff odds in 2025? Although the BoSox have started this season slowly, they're still being viewed favorably in betting markets.

I'll be updating this page daily with the latest Red Sox playoff chances, World Series odds, and other futures bets from the top Massachusetts sportsbooks

Latest Red Sox Odds: Playoffs, World Series & More

Here's a quick look at the latest Red Sox odds across several futures markets from FanDuel Massachusetts. The percentage next to each set of odds is the implied probability of that market.

For example, Fanatics has a slightly better price for the Red Sox AL East odds at +300 compared to +290 at FanDuel.

Can the Red Sox Make the Playoffs?

With the 2025 season officially underway, the Red Sox (and nearly every other MLB team) have a chance to make the playoffs. Early odds have the Red Sox as slight favorites to make the playoffs for the first time since 2021. 

What Are the Red Sox Playoff Odds?

The latest Red Sox playoff odds are -170, according to FanDuel. This puts Boston's 2025 playoff chances at 63.0% at the start of the 2025 season.

What are the Red Sox World Series Odds?

Currently, the Red Sox odds to win the World Series are +2200 or shorter across all betting sites like Caesars MA. After overperforming last season, the Red Sox World Series odds are in a better spot heading into 2025 than they were a year ago.


What are the Red Sox Odds to Win the American League?

The Red Sox American League odds are +700, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. This gives Boston the fourth-shortest odds across the entire AL. If you're odds shopping, DraftKings has a better price at +800.


What are the Boston Red Sox AL East Odds?

The Red Sox odds to win the AL East are +290, giving them the second-shortest AL East odds behind the Yankees (+105). Boston hasn't won the division since 2018.
