The site surveyed 75 voters on their predictions as the Phillies prepare to go head-to-head with the Houston Astros.
Only 17 of those polled believed the Phillies would take home the Commissioner's Trophy, with 58 favoring the Astros, citing Houston's strong defense and stacked bullpen, according to MLB.
The vast majority of the experts — 62 out of 75 — believe the series will last for five or six games.

The 2022 World Series begins with game one at Minute Maid Park in Houston on Friday, Oct. 28 at 8 p.m. EDT.
