Angels vs Phillies Preview, Parlay
Phillies -1.5
The MLB returns tonight, and we have a highly anticipated interleague matchup. I love this spot for the Phillies to handle their business at home tonight.
Southpaw Jesus Luzardo will get the nod for the Phillies. Luzardo has been strong lately, allowing two runs or less in three of his last four starts.
I expect another strong outing from the lefty tonight and the Phillies' offense to produce at a high level.
Mike Trout 1+ Hit
Mike Trout will make his homecoming on Friday night, facing the team he grew up a fan of. The All-Star entered the break swinging a hot bat with one hit or more in four of his last five games.
Trout will continue his hot stretch with another hit in this matchup tonight.
