World Series Predictions3:04 – 8:39

Ryan BolognaHost

3:04

All right, so last week I mentioned that I didn't have a team that I wanted to win at all.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:12

Yeah.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:13

Just none of these teams jumped out at me as, you know, one that I wanted to root for.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:19

But I did eventually pick the Brewers as the team

Brian O'DonnellHost

3:23

I

Ryan BolognaHost

3:24

want to win at all because I enjoy some of their players.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:27

I enjoy Jake Bowers.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:29

I enjoyed him on the Yankees, by the way.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:31

Yeah, yeah.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:33

He was one of the lone enjoyable players on that 2023 team that missed the playoffs.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:39

So, like him, like Christian Jelic, I think that fan base is really good, too.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:49

Yeah, so I'm rooting for the Brewers.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:54

I think the Brewers are going to win, too.

Ryan BolognaHost

3:58

I'll probably go with Brewers in six, but I want to see what you're going with here.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:03

Okay, good.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:05

I think it's going to be a good series.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:07

First off, I'm going with the Brewers.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:09

I think I was leaning the Brewers last week.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:12

I'm going with the Brewers.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:14

And for one of the reasons I just said before, I love their manager.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:17

I love Pat Murphy.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:18

And I love his style of managing.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:21

I love how he manages.

Brian O'DonnellHost

4:22

I love the little tidbits he gives.

Brian O'DonnellHost
