Philadelphia Phillies championship world series odds 2023
Joe Giglio, and provably most Phillies fans on this glorious Friday in the Delaware Valley, believe we are watching a special, championship team.
"Today is a day of celebration, today is a day to celebrate this team, this fan base," Giglio said on Friday's 94WIP Midday Show with Hugh Douglas. "The connection between the team and fanbase, which is really special right now. The best home field advantage I've seen in Major League Baseball in a very long time.
"The Phillies are the favorite to get to the World Series now. I believe they can beat whoever comes out of the American League. It feels like we are watching a championship team on their path to something special. Two years ago, I didn't know if this franchise would even make the playoffs because they couldn't get out of their own way and now they've become...winners!"
The Phils beat the Braves 3-1 in Game 4 on Thursday to advance to the NLCS for the second straight season and eliminated a 100-win regular season Atlanta team for the second consecutive season.
FanDuel Sportsbook currently lists the Phillies as -166 favorites to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks in the NLCS and gives the +200 odds to the win the World Series, which is second shortest behind only the Houston Astros at +185.
