World Series 2019: Latest Odds for Red Sox Repeat and More Contenders The Red Sox celebrated their 2018 World Series title with the parade that rolled through Boston on Wednesday, capping off a season that included winning 108 regular-season games and dispatching the New York Yankees, Houston Astros and Los Angeles Dodgers in the postseason. The Red Sox are clearly in a strong position for the future, and they are the co-favorites to win the 2019 World Series along with the Astros. While they might be able to survive one of those two pitchers leaving, losing both would be a problem for the 2017 World Series winners. The Yankees are usually one of the top offseason stories, and they traded for Giancarlo Stanton last year. Offseason moves will clearly impact the odds on which team will win the 2019 World Series, and the numbers are quite fluid and could change frequently in the offseason.
