MLB Free Picks: Reds vs. Phillies Live MLB Odds

Philadelphia Phillies vs Cincinnati Reds Free MLB Picks: The Cincinnati Reds are the streakiest team in the majors, and right now they are on a downward spiral. The Reds were swept by the Pirates and Indians last week, and they started this week out with a blowout loss in Philadelphia.

The Phillies offense had been struggling in a big way, but last night they pushed ten runs across the plate. Chase Utley didn’t get a hit, but his return seemed to provide an emotional lift that this team needed.

MLB Picks: Philadelphia Phillies vs St. Louis Cardinals Free Picks

St. Louis Cardinals vs Philadelphia Phillies Free MLB Predictions:  Two of the top teams in the National League square off in MLB betting action on Tuesday night, as the Philadelphia Phillies (25-15, +$453) duke it out with the St. Louis Cardinals (23-19, -$25).

There’s definitely something wrong with the offense for the Phillies right now. They only rank No. 16 in the league at 4.18 runs per game, and they don’t rank in the top half of the league in any major category. Of course, we know that Chase Utley hasn’t picked up a bat yet in the big leagues this year, and we know that replacing Jayson Werth will be difficult, but the rest of the bats just don’t have an excuse.
