The rivals combined for five of the top nine preseason candidates for NL MVP at FOX Bet.

Outfielder Juan Soto, who was traded to San Diego from the Washington Nationals at the trade deadline, is the favorite heading into the season. Soto, 24, was the runner-up for NL MVP and NL Rookie of the Year in 2021.

Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts, the 2018 American League MVP when he was with Boston, is the second betting choice at +900. 

How much do bettors love the Padres this season? Fernando Tatis Jr. is the co-third batting choice (+1000) despite having to miss the first 21 games to complete his 80-game suspension for testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug.

So with MLB Opening Day upon us, let's take a look at the 2023 National League MVP odds (odds via FOX Bet):*

Juan Soto, Padres: +550 (bet $10 to win $65 total)
Mookie Betts, Dodgers: +900 (bet $10 to win $100 total)
Fernando Tatis Jr., Padres: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)
Ronald Acuña Jr., Braves: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)
