MLB Betting Trends

Philadelphia

The Phillies are 2-7 in their last nine road games and 1-6 in their last seven road games against a right-handed starter.

Atlanta

The Braves are 18-7 in their last 25 games overall and 11-3 in their last 14 home games.

Prediction:

Soroka is having a great year for Atlanta and the Braves have won eight of his last nine starts. Eflin has given up at least three runs in his last three starts and the Phillies are just 2-6 in his last eight starts. Being on the road, Philly doesn’t have as strong of hitting as Atlanta and the Braves look to have the better starter.

MLB Prediction: Atlanta Braves -165
