MLB Free Pick: Take Philadelphia. According to latest MLB trends, the Phillies are 5-0 in their last five games against the Braves, who are 1-4 in Lowe’s last five starts against Philadelphia. Atlanta has lost seven of its last 10 games and three in a row, which has allowed the Cardinals to get within one game of the NL Wild Card. The Braves are uptight, banged up and aren’t playing with much confidence these days. Take advantage of it with the Phils tonight.
