The Phillies battled through an exciting series against the Padres while the Astros made an embarrassing showing for the New York Yankees in the ALCS. Before the series starts, let's take a look at the betting value.

Houston Astros (-190)
The Houston Astros have been dominant all season and have continued to dominate in the post-season. The Astros are in the pursuit of perfection; they haven't lost a single game in October. If you were lucky enough to grab a 10-1 World Series Champion ticket early in the regular season, you have to feel fantastic about it now. Their pathway to a championship has been made much easier than it could've been, but I'm not sure it would've mattered anyways. Houston was the favorite to make it out of the American League this season, and even at -190, it still feels good for them to win it all.

Philadelphia Phillies (+165)
If you're one of the lucky few that was brave enough to pick the Phillies to win the National League, then on behalf of the rest of the world, congratulations. Just a few short months ago, this was a longshot beyond description. It started with a single upset, and all of a sudden, the Braves, Dodgers, and Mets were all eliminated from the post-season. The Phillies were able to make short work of the San Diego Padres and finish the series 4-1. Along with some playoff quality pitching and timely hits, Bryce Harper has been leading this team with sheer power. The Phillies are on a magical run through October and, even with the plus money, the best bet would be that the magic has run out. Houston is a force that can't be stopped.
