Home Run Derby 2021 Odds: Shohei Ohtani Favored Over Joey Gallo, Pete Alonso, More

Shohei Ohtani is the odds-on favorite to win next week's Home Run Derby at Coors Field in Denver, Colorado, which should come as little surprise to anyone who has seen the two-way star play this year.

DraftKings Sportsbook lists the Japanese superstar at +380 (bet $100 to win $380) to win the derby, followed by Texas Rangers slugger Joey Gallo at +475.

Reigning Derby champion Pete Alonso of the New York Mets opened at +550 at the sportsbook—the third-best odds in the field.

Oakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson and Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez are both listed at +650, while Rockies shortstop Trevor Story is +800 despite playing in his home park.
