3* Rotation #903: MLB Thursday 3* Philadelphia Phillies -153 @ Cincinnati Reds @ 1:10 ET - The Phillies have now lost B2B games for the first time since their very first two games of the season. They should have Bryce Harper back for this game after he missed the first 3 games for paternity leave. Philadelphia will bounce back with Wheeler on the mound for this one. Don't let his 1-3 record fool you. Wheeler has been great this season! He has a 0.89 WHIP and a low ERA and has been piling up strikeouts. As for the Reds Martinez, he has a 4.76 ERA and has allowed 19 hits in 17 innings. By comparison, Wheeler has allowed 21 hits in 31 innings. The Phillies team batting average is 20 points higher than the Reds this season. Also, Martinez has struggled since moving into the starting rotation after first working long relief. Each of his last two starts were day games at home and he got roughed up in both. More of the same here and the road team rolls in this one. I don't want to get burned if the Phillies win by only a run so no run line for me but that is why a reduced unit play here on the money line is the way one can roll strong on this one. Lay it! 3* PHILADELPHIA -153
