Sliding Phillies

The Philadelphia Phillies have lost six games in a row, having been swept by Toronto and Baltimore. They are now beginning a road trip in Tampa Bay against the team they beat in the World Series last season.

I think this is a good time to bet against the Phillies, I usually like going against teams when they are on losing streaks. Tonight’s pitching match up is Jamie Moyer vs. David Price. I think the youngster has the upper hand amongst the southpaws.

Key Stats:

Price has a home ERA of 1.80

Opponents are hitting .189 against Price at Tropicana Field

Opponents are hitting .328 against Moyer this season

Moyer’s record is 4-6 on one of the best hitting teams in baseball

I don’t think Moyer will be able to end the Phillies’ losing streak tonight. Tampa Bay is a good play tonight.
