Philadelphia Phillies

Eighty-eight wins, money lost
The Philadelphia Phillies went 88-74 in the 2026 regular season. Taking their moneyline in each game lost 15.58 units, and only eight teams lost more.
Favorite or underdog
As favorites they were sound: 78-46 in 124 games, 1.5 units up, the seventh-best favorite return in MLB. At -200 or shorter they won 17 of 22 and made 1.99.
As underdogs they were not. They won 10 of 38 and lost 17.08 units, a return of -44.9%; four teams lost more as underdogs. Priced at +150 or longer they lost all five, and no win all season came at a price longer than +137, against the Milwaukee Brewers in June.
The run line splits the same way. Their 69-93 record was the second-worst in MLB, but laying 1.5 they covered 58 of 128, 45.3%, above the 41.8% every side laying 1.5 managed. Getting 1.5 they covered 11 of 34.
Home cost more
At home they went 43-38 and lost 14.84 units; only two teams lost more at home. Away they went 44-36 and lost 1.7.
The season swung by month. April lost 9.57 units at 10-16, with five run-line covers in 26. July lost 9.06 at 9-15. August was the answer to both, 21-7 and 6.26 up.
The NL East
The Atlanta Braves won nine of 13 and cost Phillies backers 5.72 units, the worst series in the division. Winning records elsewhere paid little. They went 9-4 against the Washington Nationals and 8-5 against the Miami Marlins, under half a unit up in each, and 7-6 against the New York Mets for 1.37 units lost. Outside it, the Chicago Cubs won six of seven and cost 5.46, while the San Diego Padres lost all six and paid 3.96.
The total
77 unders, 76 overs and nine pushes. No lean.
