00:00With the opening day of spring training starting this afternoon between the Dodgers and the Cubs
00:05We get you ready with an early preview of the 2025 major league baseball season Donny right before the break
00:11We showed you those World Series odds the Dodgers nearly a third of everybody else around the bigs
00:17We'll talk American League in just a second
00:19But of course this winter it wasn't just the Dodgers adding everybody the biggest move that we saw
00:26The addition of one Soto for the New York Mets and yet the Amazons still the third best price
00:32alongside the Philadelphia Phillies to win the National League it plus
00:36650 both teams behind the Atlanta Braves at a 5 to 1
00:42Number so PRS very short number for the Dodgers to win the NL as it is to win the World Series
00:47Of the other teams around the National League, especially those top four teams in the pennant odds
00:54Who do you think provides LA the toughest test this season
00:58Probably gonna be the Philadelphia Phillies if they stay hot at the right time at the end of the season which you saw them flame
01:03Out against the New York Mets, but they have the most talent wise
01:06Let's just say one through nine a pitching staff and bullpen if we combine it now the Mets are gonna be good
01:10The Mets already knocked the Phillies out last year and their estimated starting lineup with Lindor Soto Alonzo Nimmo the Antos
01:16That's a really good one through five just to get started here
01:19But the pitching staff here always gonna be questions Senga. Yes. Good pitcher. Has he shown up in the biggest moments?
01:25Maybe not necessarily here. You take a look at Minaya. Who's a very good pitcher Peterson
01:29Okay, clay Holmes Paul Blackburn Griffin Canning see where we're going here
01:32We look at the Philadelphia Phillies
01:33their one through five is pretty strong and that's usually where you're going to base the season off of because on any given day your
01:39Pitcher is probably better than the other pitcher and you're not saying okay once we get through our one two
01:43It's a crapshoot three four and five. That's not the case
01:46I expect better things last year regular season wise than even what the Mets had last year Peter Alonzo comes back
01:52Expectations higher you get Juan Soto will protect a couple guys in that lineup. We understand that the Braves would be okay as well
01:57I didn't think that a great offseason
01:59You're still waiting to see what we're gonna get a strider for this season as well as Ronald Acuna
02:03But for me in the National League you look at the price points here
02:06They do make sense
02:07But I do think the Phillies are plus 650 the Mets 650 about right there the Dodgers
02:11Excuse me, the Braves at five to one
02:13I probably would slide them down a little bit lower at this point
02:15But you will get a pretty good punch out of that NL East there with the Braves Mets in the Phillies
