Philadelphia Phillies vs Colorado Rockies Prediction

The Phillies have had a field day in this series and it’s kind of expected. The Phillies lineup is stacked and Coors is a good place to wake up the bats. Walker has had success against the Rockies in his career and Sugano just doesn’t have the sample size to trust. There’s a gap between these teams and this series has been one-sided. I don’t expect much to change. Give me the Phillies and the RL for max betting value.
