We started 0-2 in MLB this year because of some tough losses, but we return today after a day off with our MLB POD guaranteed or one day is FREE!


I think we get great value here with Cliff Lee on the mound. Lee had a 3.16 ERA last year and only managed 6 wins so he'll be extra motivated to get wins early this year while he has a healthy line up to back him up for the first time in a while. The Phillies will have Utley, Rollins and Howard in the line up who are a combined 8-19 vs. Kris Medlen who was on fire to end the year last year. I think odds are high on Medlen because of last year and there is not a huge body of work and not a lot of success for him in the early season. He had a 7.23 ERA and a 1.48 WHIP this spring and I'll trust the more veteran pitcher in this situation.

It's also important to note the Phillies were 12th in OPS vs. RHP last year while the Braves were 23rd vs. LHP.
