2010 MLB Playoffs Pick: Cincinnati Reds +1.5 -125

Reds have one of the best offenses over the course of the season. Plus don’t ignore the fact that CIN dominated PHI before three late game heroics by Philly. Halliday is one of the best pitchers in baseball but playoff experience is just as limited as the Reds starters. Volquez starts for the Reds looking like the ace that we saw before his tommy john’s surgery. Also think the bullpen of PHI is not as good as CIN. This will be much closer than anyone could imagine and would not be shocked if CIN even wins this one.
