This is a 10* play on the Philadelphia Phillies.
They were one of the worst teams in the majors last year, and expectations aren't much higher for the Phillies in 2016. They have a favorable matchup at home against another National League bottom feeder this afternoon, and I like the Phillies in Game 1 versus San Diego.
Aaron Nola will toe the slab for the Phillies, and he was sharp in his season debut. The 22 year old allowed one run on four hits, striking out eight in seven innings in a no-decision versus Cincinnati. He was 3-1 with a 3.34 ERA in six starts in Philly as a rookie in 2015, and he has the advantage of facing one of the worst lineups in all of baseball today.
The Padres hand the ball to Andrew Cashner, who was a complete disaster in 2015. So far this season it looks like more of the same, as he was torched for five runs on six hits over just four innings in a loss to the Dodgers in his season debut. What little success Cashner has had in the major league's, it's all been at pitcher friendly PETCO. He was 3-8 with a 4.74 ERA in 17 starts on the road last year.
Odubel Herrera hit a home run off Matt Harvey in a 5-2 win over New York on Sunday, and the 24 year old is 2-for-3 with a home run lifetime versus Cashner.
Take PHI.
