Baltimore Orioles vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction
Rogers has been fantastic through 56.1 innings, allowing 29 hits and 9 runs while striking out 48. The problem is Rogers is pitching for a bad Orioles team that’s lost five of their last six games and has been shutout twice in those losses. The Phillies are making a push for that NL East crown, and Suarez has been solid in his own right with a 2.68 ERA and 1.13 WHIP. Quick turnaround and at home, there’s no reason to bet against the Phillies in this spot. I’m rolling with the Phillies.
