Philadelphia Phillies Odds

The Philadelphia Phillies finally made it back to the World Series in 2022 as a National League Wild Card team, creating a sense of renewed hope among Phillies fans. It was Philadelphia’s first trip to the Fall Classic since making back-to-back appearances during the 2008/2009 seasons.

Those fans will definitely be back at Citizens Bank Park this year as the Phillies are the reigning National League Champions. Manager Rob Thomson made a lasting impression during his first year as skipper. Bryce Harper, pitcher Aaron Nola and new addition Trea Turner are expected to lead the charge toward another NL Pennant and hopefully World Series.

Does that mean it's time to start betting on the Phillies again? That's up to you, but you don't have to go far to do so as New Jersey online sportsbooks have all the best available Phillies odds for the MLB season.

Betting on Phillies team, player futures

The MLB futures market is where you can bet on how the Phillies, or any other MLB team, will do for the season, and potentially postseason, as a whole. That means you can place bets on teams to win over or under a set number of regular season games, win their division, make the postseason, win the pennant or win the World Series. Most MLB futures odds are first available in the offseason and move around all year long based on how the things are playing out.

However, you lock in the current odds at the time you place your bet. Here's how the Phillies futures odds looked at the start of the 2022 MLB season:

• Phillies to win the World Series (+1700)
• Phillies to win the National League (+850)
• Phillies to win the NL East (+370)
• Phillies to make the MLB postseason (Yes -215/No +180)
• Phillies to win over 88.5 games (Over -115/Under -105)

You can see above how the stand now. Of course, the MLB futures market also includes player futures. Look above for the latest Bryce Harper futures odds, or check with sportsbooks in New Jersey, which will likely have futures like:

• Zach Wheeler at +1200 to win the NL Cy Young.
• Andrew Painter at +2000 to win NL Rookie of the Year.
• Trea Turner at +1300 to win NL MVP.

These will obviously change throughout the year. To stay on top of the latest Phillies futures odds, check the feed above or check our dedicated futures odds feed here.

Betting tips for Citizens Bank Park games

When Citizens Bank Park opened in 2004, it was branded as a great hitter's park, but that may have been more about the hard hitting lineups the Phillies had than anything else. In each of its first few years, the ballpark was near or at the top for total home runs hit there. However, the walls were moved back in 2007, and Citizens Bank Park has been only a slightly above average offensive ballpark in more recent years.

Still, from 2010 to 2016, hitters at Citizens Bank Park produced 101 runs for every 100 runs in the average MLB ballpark and 117 home runs for every 100 home runs in the average MLB ballpark. That's why it's still considered a hitter's park, which is something you should keep in mind when betting on games there.

Which teams do the Phillies have the best and worst record against?

Here is a look at how the Phillies have done against their rivals in the National League and NL East in particular:

• Among their current NL East opponents, the Phillies have done their best against the Miami Marlins (.543 winning percentage) and their worst against the Atlanta Braves (.478).
• Philadelphia has a winning lifetime record against every other NL East team outside of Atlanta (1,184-1,293) — Miami (252-212), New York Mets (528-491) and Washington Nationals (452-437).
• Among other National League opponents, the Phillies have their best record against the Colorado Rockies (.556) and worst record against the San Francisco Giants (.424).

Phillies' expected rotation

As spring training begins, the top four spots in the Phillies starting rotation seem to be locks. Bailey Falter, Christopher Sanchez and rookie Andrew Painter are all contenders for the No. 5 role. Here's where the 2022 projected Phillies' starting rotation stands heading into Grapefruit League season:

• Zack Wheeler: 12-7 with Philadelphia in 2022.
• Aaron Nola: 11-13 in 2022 and 9-9 in 2021.
• Ranger Saurez: 10-7 with the Phillies in 2022.
• Taijuan Walker: 12-5 with the New York Mets in 2022.
• TBD

Who is the Phillies closer?

The combination of new additions and returning bullpen arms give manager Rob Thomson plenty of options when it comes to closing out games. There is a good chance the Phillies will take a closer by committee approach.

The Phillies added lefty all-star Gregory Soto via a trade with the Detroit Tigers. Besides having a 98 MPH fastball, his 2022 numbers included converting 30 out of 33 save opportunities with a 3.28 ERA. Philadelphia also signed righty Craig Kimbrel to a one-year deal. He made 22 saves last season as a member of the Los Angeles Dodgers and compiled a 3.75 ERA.

Expect big things once again from righty Seranthony Dominguez. During the 2022 postseason run, Dominguez went 2-0 with a 1.69 ERA and 18 strikeouts over 10.2 innings. He also converted nine of 11 regular season save opportunities.

Left-hander Jose Alvarado will contribute as well after going 4-2 with a 3.18 ERA in a set-up role last season.

Overall, the Phillies bullpen looks extremely promising this season.

Phillies betting lines explained

Most New Jersey sportsbooks will post game lines for Phillies games that will look like this:

• Philadelphia Phillies (A. Nola) +1.5 (-110) +155 O 4.5 (-110)
• New York Mets (M. Scherzer) -1.5 (+110) -175 U 4.5 (-110)

The names in brackets are those of the starting pitchers. After that, you can see three basic game lines.

The first is the run line. Standard run lines are 1.5. A negative number means bets on that team win if it wins by two runs or more. A positive number means bets on that team win if it avoids losing by two runs or more. The odds on run line bets are in parentheses. Negative odds tell you how much you must bet to win $100 plus your bet back. Positive odds tell you how much you stand to win, plus your bet back, for every $100 that you bet. Alternative run lines at different odds should be available, as well.

The second line is the moneyline. This is where you bet on outright winners. The odds are also either negative or positive, telling you how much you stand to win.

Finally, the third line is the total, with the odds in parentheses. Here, you're betting on whether the total combined score from both teams will be more or less than the line. In this case, with a line of 4.5, the over is five runs or more and the under is four runs or fewer. There is no chance of a push.

Live betting on Phillies games

Live betting allows you to place bets during Phillies games, if you wish. That means you can hedge bets, make up for bad bets or increase your action at live Phillies betting odds that change with how the game is progressing.

While it's mostly the same markets you can bet on before any game, live betting also opens up inning-by-inning betting and an increased number of game props at odds that change based on the score, the inning and who has the momentum. Of course, these are all factors that can change very fast, which means the odds change fast, too, making online sportsbooks and apps the only way to keep up.

Best Phillies betting app

If you're going to bet on the Philadelphia Phillies with an NJ online sportsbook, you should probably go for one that offers a lot of value. The Fox Bet app could be it.

The Fox Sports-affiliated sportsbook became an authorized gaming operator of MLB in 2019 and was offering a boost on “Phillies to win the World Series'' bets from +3500 odds to +4500 ahead of the 2021 season. Whether or no the bet boost returns this season is TBD.

Without it, the Phils remain a longshot at +3000 so the +1000 boost would add to the great value.
