I agree the World Series will be won by somebody. I'd put cash money on that.
Now I'm a Rays fan so I'm rooting for them. That doesn't mean I think they will win. Who knows. But just because the Phillies have the best regular season record doesn't mean they will win.
Here are some facts
Since the wild card round was introduced in 1995 just 3 of 16 WS champs had the best regular season record.
Between 1969 and 1993 when the AL and NL championship series were added just 7 of 25 WS champions had the best regular season record.
So overall since 1969 only 10 of 41 WS champions had the best regular season record.
