If you win, you got an upset.
If you lose, the odds were against you.

In the Yankees case, if they lose, there will be lots of unemployed folks suddenly.

So, Phillies, help save some jobs.

Not to mention that, if the Phils win, all the talk will be about how good a team they have built. If the Yanks win, all the talk will be about how they "bought" a championship, not how well they played.

So Phillies just might as well lay down and let the Yankees win. Nobody will be shocked, and nobody will give them credit.
