    Is Phillies series price worth a shot?

    At +300 and they have the three best pitchers in every game.
    I think the toughest game may be tonight, but if they win tonight, back at home for two in front of a raucus philadelphia fan base. With an ace in Oswalt and the 2008 World Series MVP in Hamels.

    Yes I'm a Phils fan and my be grasping at straws, but what do you think?

    Honestly I can't see them coming back. Just back them tonight. It's probably the last time they win til next year. I am a huge Phillies fan.

    If the Phils win tonight, Oswalt should win game six, then Phils have should win game seven due experience in the playoffs. So in short, its worth a shot

    They opened -255 for the series.

    @ +300, of course its worth a shot.

    they have to win 3 in a row
    if each was even money, that's +300
    but you need it like a parlay, without the benefit of parlay action.
    the flat answer is it's not worth it

    Thanks for the insight and the two opposing viewpoints.
    I already took it though (a little bit as a fan and to enjoy the game) so I can always hedge a game 6 or 7.

    But living in Philadelphia and knowing this team, I really am not feeling any magic about them, not like in years past, we don't seem to be getting the luck you need to win it all.

    The Phillies have gone on horrible stretches of bad hitting in the regular season and may be in that rut right now
