10* PHILLIES (ASSASSIN)

I had the Phillies yesterday and that pick unfortunately came up short in the Jays 18-11 blowout win. Philadelphia comes in super desperate here though to snap its four-game slide, as it looks to get back into the Wildcard hunt. The Phillies haven't been in the playoffs since 2011. The Jays have won three of their last four, but with upcoming series starting at Tampa Bay tomorrow, followed by home series vs. New York and Boston, I expect the visiting side to come in complacent and get caught looking ahead. The Phillies clearly don't have that luxury. The starters are evenly matched. Kevin Gausman (12-10, 3.45 ERA) gets the call for Toronto, while Zach Wheeler (11-7, 3.07) counters for the Phillies. It would be easy to write a convincing argument for either starter to win here. I just think that the oddsmakers are not propertly taking into account all of the other situational factors here. I think the value here is for sure on Philadelphia
