MLB Betting Trends

Philadelphia Phillies

The under is 7-1 in the last eight Philadelphia games. The Phillies are 7-2 in their last nine games overall. 

New York Mets

The Mets are 9-25 in their last 34 home games. New York is 59-27 in the last 86 meetings.

Prediction: 

We don't have an MLB read on either of the two starting pitchers, so I'm going to make this easy and go with the better team here. That is the Phillies and given how much the Mets have struggled at home, I think it's the right play here.
