    Phillies (-140) line seems really low tomorrow

    Red Sox @ Phillies. Daniel Bard vs. Cole Hamels.

    Phils should be like -160 here at least. Is this just a typical line in which Boston is getting too much respect? I would think Phillies are a no-brainer here.

    red sox average almost 2 runs more per game higher against leftys than rightys, and their offense as a whole is elite

    daniel bard coming off a good start, and red sox bullpen has been the best in the majors for almost a month now

    phillies offense is subpar.

    you could make a case for the phillies being overvalued

    Bard's been pretty good lately and the Red Sox do hit lefties pretty well, but I don't know how you could back Boston in this spot. Hamels has been one of the best pitchers in baseball so far this season.

    I agree I thought this line would be more. Red sox are getting it done without a lead off hitter. That will Hirt them soon enough. I like Philly here.

    is this one of those i present facts, you present opinion situations?

    maybe youre leaning phillies because of your avi, -140 is not a good price of them in this spot regardless of the result

    Line seems about right IMO. Offensive adv goes to Redsox but they lose DH, Starting pitching advantage to Phillies and both bullpens equally suck.

    staying away from this one, aside the AL ruling the NL over the years (yet no so much last year- record 134-125), but Boston is a solid interleague team in the road dog position, 19-14 +8.15u since 2004. Phillies are an average 28-28 since 2004 as a home favorite in interleague play and 11-7 (-.50 units) since 2010. The phillies did go 6-3 last year has a home fav.

    Phils do well vs fastball pitchers. Throw them some off-speed pitches and you have a no no brewing.

    In other news, what has gotten into Chooch? .343BA 6HR's best hitter by far on Phils.

    Pretty crazy. hasn't looked fluky either bc he's hitting to all parts of the field. he'll regress eventually though. Pence is brutal.

    Both teams are hot with each winning 6 of there last 7. Only thing is Phillies played Cubs, Astros and Padres. Redsox played Cleveland, Seattle and Tampa. Have to give edge to Boston there. Hamels has been really good but I think this game will be alot closer then the line indicates, but guess will see. Doubt Ill even play this game so GL with your play.

    you know what would be great is if Hamels nailed Middlebrooks to welcome him to the big leagues!

    Correction *single*.

    Phils have always hit fastball pitchers. Nothing new

    Qualls is literally the worst pitcher in baseball year in and year out.
