The Atlanta Braves were supposed to glide to the NL East Division Title, but then Philadelphia happened. The Phillies have started the season 36-14 and have been dominating to this point. The Phillies entered this series as the hottest team in baseball and are alone on top of the NL East Division. The pitching matchup for Thursday will feature Texas righty Jose Urena (1-3, 3.29) taking on Phillies' right-hander Zack Wheeler (5-3, 2.52). The Phillies are playing as a heavy home favorite, and have been very bad bets. They are 87-88 overall and their ROI is a woeful -18.5%. Make the play on Texas.
