All the action was on the Phillies as a -130 to -128 favorite in Arizona

This one just hadn't moved and makes us wonder why the books aren't pushing the line up to -140 or higher in an effort to get more action on Arizona.  In fact, as of 6:30 pm ET, 92% of the moneyline action was on Philadelphia.

Zack Wheeler starts for Philly.  He already racked up eight strikeouts over six innings of two-run baseball as he defeated the Diamondbacks in Game 1 of the NLCS last Monday evening in Philadelphia. He has permitted 14 RBIs and 6 homers against these Diamondbacks in their 111 appearances against Wheeler.  Christian Walker is 9 for 19 against him. 

Zac Gallen starts for Arizona.  Gallen was knocked around in a losing effort against the Phillies in Game 1 of the NLCS on Monday, surrendering five runs on eight hits over his five innings of work.  Bookmaker at one point dropped the number from -130 to -121.  Circa went all the way down to -119 earlier in the day.  Really loving Arizona here.  The dollar amount wagered was $500K Philadelphia to $50K Arizona just before 7 pm.

Of the cappers at the G911 Sports Hub, four were backing Philadelphia on the moneyline, five on Arizona.

When you see Bobby Babowski you automatically think HOT but he's been sensational in the NFL.  His MLB picks are so-so and Bobby is on Philadelphia Saturday night.

Brian Bitler is 4-1 with his MLB plays.  He's on Arizona.  Mario Deluca is 5-1 with his last MLB plays.  He too is on the Diamondbacks.  William Taylor has been quite good and he's on Arizona.

Baseball News

Chris Paddack Player Prop Bets

Paddack recorded 10 strikeouts over seven shutout innings on Monday in a win over the White Sox. Prior to that start, Paddack was obliterated by the Orioles, allowing nine runs on 12 hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox.  Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Trevor Williams Player Prop Bets

The Nats Trevor Williams held the Astros to one run with four strikeouts across six innings in a no-decision on Saturday.  And the betting public was eating him up at a near 80% clip.
