In Philadelphia, Dave Portnoy, known for his love of pizza and as the founder of Barstool Sports, made a bold move by placing a $200,000 bet on the Phillies to win the 2024 World Series. If the Phillies win, he stands to win nearly $1.5M. Despite being a Boston native and a proud supporter of his city’s sports teams, Portnoy is putting his money on the Phillies to bring a championship home for the first time since 2008.
Having experienced disappointment when his pick, the Edmonton Oilers, lost in seven games during the Stanley Cup, Portnoy remains optimistic about his new bet on the Phillies. Despite the setback, he expressed a positive outlook on social media, mentioning that all good things must come to an end, signaling the start of a new streak.
With the best record in Major League Baseball, the Phillies are considered strong contenders for the World Series title. According to Fangraphs.com, the Phillies are given a 14.1% chance of winning the World Series, ranking them behind the Dodgers (18%) and Yankees (14.8%). Despite the competition, Portnoy remains confident in his bet on the Phillies.
