Sport: MLBPick Selection: Philadelphia Phillies $ line (-) @ Florida
Free Pick: Play ON Philadelphia Phillies $ line (-) @ Florida @ 7:05 PM ET ? The Phillies are a short road favorite here and they are well worth the price considering the pitching match-up of Brett Myers vs Ricky Nolasco. Yes, the Marlins Nolasco has had a few decent outings versus the Phillies but overall, he has struggled more often than not for Florida this season. Also, Myers is coming off of a dominating effort in his most recent start and yet he, and the Phillies, took a tough loss in that one. That?s means it?s bounce back time for Myers and the Phils tonight and, with the way the Phillies have been winning, it?s unlikely that the run support won?t be there for Myers. The Phillies are 15-4 in their last 19 games and they?ve averaged almost 8 runs per victory in those 15 wins. As for the Marlins, they are just 4-9 in their last 13 games and they?ve allowed an average of about 6.5 runs per game during this rough stretch. Florida?s pitching is starting to let them down and, with Nolasco on the mound tonight, it will only get worse. The Phillies are capable of a road rout in this one and, that being the case, the play here is to grab the small price on the Phils and then sit back and watch their hot streak continue!
