Phillies vs Rockies Predictions and Picks
"I'm willing to take a flyer on the Rockies getting 2.5 runs at home on Monday night. While this team has been horrendous, they've covered this line of +2.5 runs in two straight games. Colorado will turn to Kyle Freeland, and he has actually turned in two quality starts in his last three outings .... If Freeland turns in a decent outing, the Rockies should manage to keep this game within reach." — Trent Pruitt, Statsalt
"The Phillies should have a major advantage in (tonight's) matchup, particularly on the mound. On the road, Sanchez is 2-1 this season with an ERA of 1.88. The Phils have also won three of his last five starts. On the other side of the field, Freeland is a miserable 0-3 with a 9.77 ERA at home this season. The Rockies have lost four of Freeland's last five starts this season. The Phillies are already 3-0 against the Rockies this season heading into this series and should thrive in the higher altitude with power hitters like Schwarber, Harper, and Castellanos." — Mark Ruelle, Winners and Whiners
"Philadelphia is simply too good right now, and Sanchez has been locked in. Colorado, by contrast, can't keep runners off the bases or balls in the park. Expect the Phillies' top bats to feast early and for Sanchez to keep mowing down Colorado's bottom-tier lineup. The only edge Colorado might find is in Coors Field's altitude aiding their power numbers — but that won't be enough." — Jorge Costa, ClutchBuzz
