MLB Picks: Phillies vs. Mets MLB Baseball Odds

New York Mets vs Philadelphia Phillies MLB Picks:The Philadelphia Phillies scored three runs in the ninth and held off a Mets comeback attempt in the bottom of the ninth to win the series opener on Friday night.

Arizona Diamondbacks vs Colorado Rockies MLB Odds

Colorado Rockies vs Arizona Diamondbacks Free MLB Predictions: By virtue of their 2-1 win on Wednesday night, the Arizona Diamondbacks jumped into second place in the NL West. The team that was out of the blocks the fastest in the NL West, the Colorado Rockies are stuck at just .500 now, and they’ll hope to avoid the drop below the Mason-Dixon Line on Thursday when these two divisional foes meet up in an MLB betting battle shown live on the MLB Network.

Where on earth did the D’Backs come from? All of a sudden, they’ve won 10 of their last 12 games, and they have stormed back into contention in the NL West race. Even more important is that they are winning close games, as they have won five straight one run decisions, something that really plagued this club last year.

Reds vs. Phillies Live MLB Free Picks

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.

Philadelphia Phillies Vs St. Louis Cardinals Free MLB Predictions

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.

MLB Free Picks: New York Yankees Vs Boston Red Sox MLB Picks

Boston Red Sox Vs New York Yankees MLB Free Picks: Sunday Night Baseball betting action doesn’t get any better than this. The Boston Red Sox are going to be taking on the New York Yankees in the Bronx in a nationally televised MLB Betting affair that really could go either way, and sparks are almost always certain to fly when these two hook up on the diamond.

It’s hard to think that the Red Sox haven’t been above .500 this season, they’ve come close time and time before, but they have yet to get over the hump. This could be the first time that they have been at .500 since Opening Day as well. Give the Sox credit. They have won four of the five meetings this year between these two behemoths, and they are 6-1 in their last seven and 11-3 in their last 14.

MLB Picks: Braves vs Brewers Free Picks

Atlanta Braves vs Milwaukee Brewers MLB Free Picks: The Milwaukee Brewers and Atlanta Braves both had high expectations for this season, but both have started the year off slowly. The good news for these teams is that we are only a month into the season, and there is plenty of time to turn it around.

The Braves took the first game of this series on Monday evening behind another solid pitching performance by Jair Jurrjens. It will be a matchup of two talented young pitchers in this one.
