FRIDAY *10* DEMOLITION! (89-57 RECORD!)
(MLB) Philadelphia vs. Miami,
Money Line: -138.00 Philadelphia (Away)
Result: Loss
Money Line: -138.00 Philadelphia (Away)
Result: Loss
The set-up: Philadelphia comes in off a four-game sweep of the Mets and I think it carries that momentum over here. The Phillies won't be taking anything for granted here either after the Marlins swept them in a three-game series earlier in the month. Philadelphia hands the ball to Vince Velasquez, while the home side goes with Elieser Hernandez.
The pitchers: Velasquez (2-4, 4.40 ERA) has made two straight appearances as a starter, including last weekend when he faced Miami, giving up just one run over five frames of work.
Hernandez (0-2, 4.34) has gone 0-7 with a 4.54 ERA in nine starts between 2018 and 2019.
The pick: Velasquez owns a 2.90 ERA in 12 career starts vs. the Marlins and a 1.64 ERA in two starts at Miami. Hernandez has a 5.40 ERA in three games vs. Philadelphia. All things considered, I feel this line could/should in fact be a lot larger. Play on the visitors.
