Fastball on FanNation Staff Makes Their 2024 MLB Awards, World Series Predictions

The Los Angeles Dodgers are the heavy World Series favorites for a reason, but the Atlanta Braves, New York Yankees and other star-studded teams won't go down without a fight.

Opening Day is here, which means fans are in for seven months of uninterrupted baseball.

Fastball, part of the FanNation and Sports Illustrated networks, is locking in predictions for how the regular season and postseason will play out, from division champions and award winners to the World Series itself. Oddsmakers and experts have settled on a handful of favorites across the board, but per usual, a few dark horses are bound to emerge.
