Bovada has updated and released their 2015 World Series odds, and the Padres, as expected, have moved up a pretty good amount compared to last year's odds. Going into this season San Diego is at 25/1 and right on par with the Yankees and the Royals, which is pretty good company, in terms of World Series odds, if you ask me. In comparison, last year prior to the season the Padres' odds were 66/1, on equal footing with the Cubs and Rockies.
Here's the list of all the teams and their odds, courtesy of @BovadaLV:
Washington Nationals 6/1
Los Angeles Dodgers 8/1
Boston Red Sox 12/1
Chicago Cubs 12/1
Los Angeles Angels 12/1

Obviously these, like any preseason projections, should be taken with a grain of salt. But it's always interesting to see a more objective view of how the team stacks up. And it's nice to see that even from an outsider's perspective, the Padres look to be moving on up in a big way.
