Philadelphia Phillies vs New York Mets Prediction
I expect both of these pitches are going to be solid here. Sanchez in his last start went seven innings, giving up only one run. Manaea in his last start gave up only three runs, and he’s going to step up again here. The Phillies and Mets are both going to really struggle with the offense and that is going to be the difference here as this game is going to stay under the total. Back the under to cash here.
