But getting Darvish and Blake Snell cuts the Padres’ odds.

Acquiring pitching aces Yu Darvish from the Cubs and Blake Snell from the Rays has done wonders for the Padres’ chances of winning the World Series, according to Las Vegas oddsmakers.

The Padres’ odds of winning the Series moved from 12/1 to 7/1, according to SportsBetting.com. The odds for world champion and division rival Dodgers moved from 7/2 to 4/1.
