Betting Odds
<p>
In the third game of this four-game set yesterday the Phillies beat the Mets 7-3 taking a three-run lead in the second and never looking back. The victory for the Phillies was their second straight after dropping back to back games to the Mets in the opener and to the Pirates in the previous series finale. They’re still one of the hotter clubs in the Majors winners of 10 of their last 13 contests. The same can't be said about the host Mets who have who have just a single win in their last handful of games. This, however, New York does hold a 4-3 games edge after getting the money in the first three meetings of this campaign.

Phillies at Mets Prediction 7/11/18
Even with Jacob deGrom on the mound who for the most part has pitched exceptionally well, the Mets are not a good bet going 7-11 in his 18 starts. So backing the host laying money is unlikely to have a positive effect on your bankroll. The total is a different story. deGrom has shown some cracks in recent games allowing an HR in three consecutive starts lasting just six innings in two of his last three allowing a trio of runs in both games. The Phillies counter with Vince Velasquez who is making his first start after going on the DL. Before the injury, he was pitching well on the road, but none of those games were against the Mets who have a quartet of betters who have faced him with overall success. Michael Conforto, Wilmer Flores, Asdrubal Cabrera and Jose Reyes have combined for 11 hits in 31 at bats with Conforto and Cabrera owning him going 9 for 18. The UNDER has indeed been trending in this matchup this season with a 1-6 mark versus the O/U line, but I think the opportunity to surpass tonight's low total has some value.
