MLB | Washington 2 @ Philadelphia 7 | 08/05 | 11:05 PM UTC
Philadelphia -195
ANALYSIS: I was thrilled last night's game was called after 4.5 innings because Noah Syndergaard was giving me heartburn, diarrhea you name it. However, the main reason I did bet the Phillies is I thought that lineup would be so much better with Jean Segura back and Brandon Marsh's debut and it was -- even if they didn't do much. Just lengthens it. I expect another good night offensively against struggling Nats right-hander Josiah Gray, whom I believe is running out of gas having already blasted past his career high in innings. Gray was excellent in June but 1-3 with a 6.75 ERA in July. I don't really love Kyle Gibson of the Phils, although he has been good in three of his past four, so I'll be breaking out the Pepto again tonight I'm sure. Philadelphia will have its full bullpen available after not using any relievers Thursday. At less than -200, gotta do it (opened at -225).
