World Series Prediction

Philadelphia Phillies Vs Houston Astros

When the Phillies fired Joe Girardi earlier this season there is no way in hell I thought they would even come to close to the World Series, but that’s the great thing about baseball is they were able to overcome that problem and really put together a solid season. Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber have really stepped it up all season long, but most notably in the postseason. Aaron Nola and Zach Wheeler have really held it down throughout the postseason on the pitching side for the Phillies. The Astros have been the most consistent team from start to finish. The starting pitching is the best in the league, the bullpen is solid, they can score a lot of runs, and they are great defensively. There really isn’t a weakness with the Astros and that has shown since they haven’t even lost a game, yet this postseason. I don’t think they will be perfect in this series against the Phillies, but I have a feeling this one will be pretty quick. The Astros are way too stacked at every position, and while the Phillies are coming into this one hot, the Astros have been too good this season to blow it.
