Hard throwing Matt Harvey is getting all the respect with this betting number, but what about the rest of the team? The Mets are mostly awful, 25th in runs scored, 27th in on-base percentage, with a losing record both home and away. The Mets are 2-9 in their last 11 against a team with a losing record, and 1-7 in the role of favorite. The Mets are also 2-5 in Harvey's last seven starts with four days of rest. The bullpen won't be able to help Harvey if he needs it, using five guys yesterday in an 8-7 loss here. Philadelphia has a winning record at home and has won three of its last five5 games. The Phillies are 7-2 in their last nine home games, and 7-2 in their last nine home games against a team with a losing road record. Starter John Lannan doesn't walk anyone (three free passes in 19+ innings), and the Phillies are 4-1 in their last five games as a home underdog of +110 to +150. And when these teams meet, the Mets are 1-6 in the last seven meetings. Play the Phillies.

1.5 units on Philadelphia +120 (moneyline) (risk 1.5 to return 1.5)
