MLB Thursday 10* Top Play Philadelphia Phillies Run Line -1.5 -112 vs Washington Nationals @ 7:05 ET - With rallying for a 3-1 win yesterday over the Braves, Philly continues to build momentum. Before too much longer, Harper is expected back in the lineup for the Phillies and they have maintained a wild card spot even with him out of the lineup. This speaks volumes to the fact this Philly team has a solid clubhouse and is building momentum. Now they see newly acquired Syndergaard make his Phillies debut tonight and they can take on the NL East punching bag otherwise known as the Nationals. Espino has been rather unimpressive this season on the mound for Washington and, regardless of the pitchers here, I am going with the home team run line in this one. The Nationals are 17-39 against teams with a winning record this season and also an incredibly poor 9-38 in divisional games this season. This one sets up well to be a road rout as Philly has been hot and the Nats have remained cold. 10* PHILADELPHIA -1.5 -112
