Cincinnati Reds
Cincinnati’s offense has been the weaker side this season, if you were to just look at the hitting and pitching. But the Reds can hit right-handed pitching when their right side of the infield has it going on.
Derek Dietrich really hasn’t slowed all season and Joey Votto is trending up again, though just mildly. His OPS was up at .740 at the start of May before plummeting into the .600s after a single 0-for-7 in extra-innings. He fell as far as .651 before getting hot and back up over .700 right at the end of the month. Still, he’s only hit one homer since April 26.

Tanner Roark gave up two homers in his first June start after keeping the ball inside the park for the entire month of May — five starts spanning nearly 28 innings.
Philadelphia Phillies
Philadelphia stands a good chance to hit Roark a bit. For one, he isn’t the unhittable of starting pitchers, though solid and savvy. He’s given up a dozen hits in his last two starts, which have only covered 11 innings. He’s walked two, too.
The Phils didn’t let the loss of Andrew McCutchen get them down in San Diego. They came back to win the last two games after losing the opener and take the series. They enter Friday’s play with a lead of 2.0 over Atlanta in the division.

Since returning from his stint in Triple-A to regain his mechanics and confidence, Nick Pivetta has been a different pitcher. He’s given up six hits and three runs over two starts (11 innings) with 15 strikeouts and just two walks.
MLB Baseball Betting Trends:
- Under is 36-15-1 in CIN last 52 road games.

- Over is 7-2 in Pivettas last 9 starts overall.
Free Cincinnati Reds vs. Philadelphia Phillies MLB Prediction: over.
The trend will be backing Pivetta and yes, he’s a different guy now. It’s just been two starts, though. Has he settled in for the long-run? Let’s see. I’ll go contrary and remain skeptical for a little bit longer.
