Mets Overtake Braves in World Series Odds After Justin Verlander Signing at Winter Meetings

The New York Mets entered the postseason with a whimper and ended the playoffs with thud. They lost two-time National League Cy Young winner Jacob deGrom to a massive new contract with the Texas Rangers. Now they are bringing in this year's AL Cy young winner Justin Verlander.

Justin Verlander signed with the Mets at the Winter Meetings. Verler will join Max Scherzer and Jacob deGrom in the rotation next season. FanDuel Sportsbook moved the New York Mets to +850, passing their division rival Atlanta Braves. The Mets held the top spot in their league for most of the season, but lost the lead to the Braves on September 30.
