Phillies vs Athletics Predictions and Picks
"I am taking Philadelphia to cover the -1.5 run spread (-110) against Sacramento on Friday night .... The Phillies have Zack Wheeler on the mound for this one, and there are very few pitchers in baseball better than him. Wheeler has a 2.67 ERA on the season so far, which improves to 2.35 in night games. The Athletics' lineup has been truly abysmal lately, averaging just 2.9 runs per game during their current 9-game losing streak, and don't stand much of a chance against Wheeler." — Alex Porter, Statsalt
"Philadelphia's offense has been firing on all cylinders recently, powering them through an intense race with the Mets for the top spot in the NL East. The Phillies' lineup has been consistently scoring runs and putting pressure on opposing pitchers as they aim to seize first place. Meanwhile, Sacramento is hoping to put a stop to Philadelphia's hot streak and secure a crucial victory on their home field to shift momentum in their favor." — Dylan Hellebrand, Picks and Parlays
"Jeffrey Springs has done a great job over his last four starts, but he'll have a tall task to keep the Phillies quiet. Philadelphia has been killing the southpaws over the last couple of weeks. The Athletics should struggle to get to Zack Wheeler, who is in the 98th percentile in expected ERA, 95th percentile in expected batting average, and 84th percentile in hard-hit percentage. I can only take the Phillies at the runline in this game." — Viktor Allenson, Winners and Whiners
