Divisional Dominator - Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach MLB Rotation #910 Thursday 10* Top Play Philadelphia Phillies Money Line (-) vs New York Mets @ 7:05 ET - This line has gone from an opener in the -140 range to as low as -115. I like the Phillies here as they have staff ace Aaron Nola on the mound and look to bounce back from letting a big lead slip away in yesterday's 5-4 loss to the Mets. Note that Nola has a 1.65 ERA in his last 4 starts. Also, this season at home he has a 1.57 ERA and has held opponents to a .133 batting average. I know Seth Lugo has been pitching well for Mets but the Phillies have 6 hitters who are hitting .278 or better against him. Also, Lugo has not pitched as well on the road as he has at home. He is 0-3 with a 3.77 ERA and a .293 BAA in 7 road games (2 starts) this season. More of the same on tap here and the Phillies improve to 7-3 the last 10 times they were off a loss in which they allowed 5 or more runs. Philly, prior to yesterday's loss, was on an 11-2 run in home games including 4-0 against the Mets. Phillies at home and with Nola on the mound are in the perfect spot to bounce right back and we get a great price here. Lay it! 10* PHILADELPHIA
