00:00When we look at the National League, it's a bit more clear cut, unless you can introduce
00:07a fourth team to this conversation that you think could make noise, but for most, it's
00:11a three-team race.
00:12Take us into the National League.
00:14Well, no Spencer Strider for me really hurts the Braves.
00:18Now, it's not hurting them as much of the odds, which is kind of funny when you look
00:21at it, plus 250.
00:23The Dodgers, again, very public, plus 145, not getting the best number.
00:27I keep going back to the Phillies here, because the Phillies have an MVP candidate in Bryce
00:31Harper.
00:32Eventually, some of these other guys are going to hit.
00:34Now, Bryson Stott is hit.
00:36You know, Trey Turner's going to be out for a while, but he'll eventually come back.
00:39I think when you come to the Philadelphia Phillies, you're looking at a team here where
00:44you have Zach Wheeler, who's been the best pitcher in the National League.
00:46You have Aaron Noah.
00:47The rest of this rotation's been good.
00:50The Phillies are an extremely intriguing piece, and they are one of the few teams, Matt, that
00:54when games start to matter at the end of the year, the Philadelphia Phillies have a
00:58home-field advantage, because that place is bananas.
01:02So you can't say that about a lot of stadiums in a lot of cities nowadays.
01:06You can still say it about Philly.
01:08And looking at the National League, it's going to take whatever team that's going to come
01:11out of the National League East, it looks like they could challenge the Dodgers.
01:14Maybe the Nationals can make some noise.
01:16I'm kidding.
01:17Let's go to the World Series now and see where do we finally land before the segment ends.
01:21See, we said nice things for Sam, and now we're taking it all back.
01:24Look, you're looking again.
01:26The Phillies are plus 950.
01:28The Orioles are plus 1100.
01:30We have very easy World Series, wouldn't it, right?
01:32And I think to invest in both of them right now would be really smart, because I think
01:36you might get...
01:37I mean, you could win here already.
01:38You invest in both and it ends up being the World Series with these two teams playing
01:41each other.
01:42I think you've already won.
