MLB 3-Pack
(MLB) NY Mets vs. Philadelphia,
Money Line: 115.00 Philadelphia (Home)
Result: Loss
Play: Philadelphia Phillies
Rating: 8*

The Philadelphia Phillies entered the All Star break red hot by winning 10 of their last 13 games. I like them to come out strong here in the opener of a three-game set against the New York Mets.

Bartolo Colon (7-4, 3.28 ERA) takes the ball for the Mets. He was rocked for six runs on 10 hits with three homers in 4 2/3 frames his last turn. The 43 year old right-hander is 0-1 in two starts against Philadelphia this season and the Phillies are 9-1 in their last 10 games vs. a right-handed starter.

Jeremy Hellickson (6-6, 3.92 ERA) takes the ball for Philadelphia. He's 2-0 with just a total of three earned runs allowed through 18 innings in his last three starts. He's 1-0 in two starts against the Mets this year and the Mets are 0-4 in their last four road games vs. a right-handed starter.
