Before\u00a0baseball gambling<\/a> fans turn their attention to other sports betting events this weekend, we have the Tuesday MLB game of the day pick for you. It\u2019s time for our weekly baseball picks for online MLB betting action.<\/p>\n Season Record:<\/strong> Jurrjens Continues Comeback Against Phillies<\/strong><\/p>\n MLB Betting<\/strong><\/a> – Atlanta Braves @ Philadelphia Phillies<\/strong><\/p>\n Jair Jurrjens (1-3) vs. Cole Hamels (6-7)<\/p>\n Jurrjens vs. Phillies Hitting<\/strong><\/p>\n Jair Jurrjens will be making his second start since spending two months on the DL because of a strained hamstring. Winless before the disabled stint, Jurrjens was able to win in his comeback appearance, holding the Nationals to one run over five innings last week. It was a very welcome sight for Braves fans who had grown frustrated with Jurrjens lack of production before getting injured. It may take a start or two before Jurrjens is fully back in a rhythm, but it\u2019s a huge load off of his back to get his first win so early in his injury comeback.<\/p>\n Jurrjens has had some success against Philly in the past, going 3-3 with a 2.35 ERA lifetime against the Phillies. The right-hander hasn\u2019t allowed Philadelphia\u2019s best hitters to get the best of him (Jimmy Rollins, Shane Victorino and Ryan Howard are all hitting under .275 against Jurrjens), and that\u2019s led to his success. The only Phillies regular with any substantial success against Jurrjens is Chase Utley (3 HR\u2019s in 22 AB\u2019s); lucky for Atlanta fans Utley is on the DL.<\/p>\n Hamels vs. Braves Hitting<\/strong><\/p>\n After an encouraging May, Hamels has spent the last month and a half regressing into the sub-par pitcher the baseball world saw last year. He is 1-5 in his last seven starts, and has failed to provide the stability needed as a legit number two starter. Those familiar with\u00a0online betting know the frustration Hamels has caused fantasy owners this season. <\/p>\n It won\u2019t get any easier against one of the top offenses in the National League. Hamels knows first-hand how potent the Braves bats can be; on June 1st<\/sup> Atlanta crushed the Phillies 7-3, sending Hamels to the showers in the first inning after getting three very quick runs. Martin Prado leads the NL in batting average, and if you\u00a0bet on MLB<\/a> you know Troy Glaus has put up some pretty impressive numbers as well (15 HR\u2019s, 56 RBI\u2019s). No Jason Heyward (DL) will help Hamels, but it may not be enough.
\nAtlanta: 48-35 SU
\nPhiladelphia: 43-38 SU <\/p>\n
