T.M. Selection: Philadelphia Phillies -1.5.

I like the Philadelphia Phillies runline in this game against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday. The Phillies have started to look great in their games lately winning 3 in a row over the Reds now and I expect them to sweep the series here with another win. Their offense has been getting really hot again, putting up 7 runs in both of their 2 most recent games. Aaron Nola (8-10, 3.25 ERA) is up for the Phillies here and he has been great all year. He just gave up 5 runs in his most recent start but only gave up 1 run in each of his 3 starts before that, and I expect him to bounce back here against this bad lineup. Justin Dunn (1-1, 6.08 ERA) is up for the Reds here and he hasn't looked good in his starts this year. He has only made 3 starts this year but he has given up some runs in all of those starts and I expect the Phillies to take advantage of him here with tha hot offense. I like the Phillies runline in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Phillies.
