Why Consider the MLB Odds for the Phillies?
Why should you consider betting on Philadelphia In this contest? Well, to be honest about it, there aren’t many good reasons at all. Philadelphia has dropped three straight and seven of their last 10 games overall. They come into this series off a sweep at the hands of the mediocre San Francisco Giants in which they got outscored 12-1 over three games, including Sunday’s 6-1 loss. The Phillies are also an uninspiring 12-17 on the road this season, so there’s that as well.Team Statistics

Why Consider the MLB Odds for the Cubs?
Why should you consider betting on the Chicago Cubs? Well, there are a few good reasons. First, Chicago is playing at home where they’ve gone 15-11 this year. Second, veteran right-hander Kyle Hendricks has been throwing the ball pretty solidly this season. Another good reason is that the Cubs are starting to heat up in a big way by winning four straight and seven of their last eight games overall. Last but not least, Chicago will be facing a struggling starter when they take on Philly right-hander Zach Eflin. The Cubs come into Game 1 of this series off an emphatic four-game sweep of the Mets that saw them outscore their NL counterparts 21-6 over the span of the quartet of games, including their 2-0 shutout win on Sunday.
While Kyle Hendricks took a loss the last time out despite limiting Pittsburgh to just two earned runs on seven hits and one walk in 5.0 innings, the veteran right-hander has gone nine straight starts of limiting the opposition to three earned runs or less while giving up two earned runs three times during the stretch and one earned run or less twice.
