00:05 Managers of the year, the odds are out at the FanBull Sportsbook.
00:08 American League, the favorite, AJ Hinch.
00:10 In the National League, it's Craig Council.
00:12 But how about this here, Craig?
00:14 I don't see any managers from the Atlanta Braves.
00:17 I don't see any managers from the Dodgers here.
00:19 Do we automatically throw the good teams out right away
00:22 when we try to line up our odds here?
00:24 It's like, you know what?
00:25 They're gonna be good.
00:26 And if the manager's good, they win a World Series.
00:27 He didn't do anything or have his hand in that.
00:30 >> Yeah, I think, Donny, usually the manager of the year,
00:34 generally speaking, when it's between two managers,
00:37 the one that's expected to win and the one that's not,
00:41 usually the one that's not ends up winning.
00:43 And that really speaks to last year.
00:45 The National League Manager of the Year was Skip Schumacher.
00:47 Nobody had that at the beginning of the season.
00:49 So what's interesting about the names that you see there?
00:52 Take a look at the American League.
00:53 Who is that second name?
00:54 Matt Quartaro?
00:56 I think there's probably a lot of people watching, guys,
00:57 that have no idea who Matt Quartaro is
01:00 or what team he even manages.
01:01 He's the manager of the Kansas City Royals.
01:04 So, look, maybe the Royals going out,
01:07 spending a little bit, puts them slightly above 500.
01:10 Marlins slightly above 500 last year.
01:13 It does make some sense.
01:14 The one that I like of all the ones that you showed
01:17 is David Bell from the Cincinnati Reds.
01:18 He was pretty close last year.
01:20 The Reds are definitely gonna take a big step forward
01:22 in that division.
01:23 You could make the case they win the division
01:26 with a little bit of help.
01:26 So that's the one that does stick out to me.
