MLB Predictions Today: Braves vs Phillies Sure Tips
The Phillies and Braves face off Thursday afternoon in Game 2 of a doubleheader at Citizens Bank Park. Read our preview for the Braves vs Phillies match. With Zack Wheeler on the mound, Philadelphia looks to secure another win against a Braves team struggling for consistency. Here’s our prediction. Betting Preview For Braves VS Phillies Betting On Atlanta Braves Chris Sale takes the ball for the Braves, looking to bounce back from a rough outing against Philly earlier this season where he allowed 5 earned runs in under 5 innings. While he’s shown flashes of dominance (3.36 ERA), he’s struggled against the Phillies historically (5.46 career ERA vs PHI). Atlanta’s bats have gone quiet lately, and the team is just 2-6 in its last eight games. They’re also underperforming on the road with a poor 10-18 away record. Betting On Philadelphia Phillies Zack Wheeler has been untouchable this May, boasting a 0.68 ERA for the month and leading the Phillies to wins in his last 10 starts. Philadelphia is riding serious momentum, winning 9 of their last 10 and leading the National League in wins. Their balanced lineup and consistent bullpen make them a reliable play, especially at home, where they’ve been strong all season. MatchPlug Prediction For Braves vs Phillies With Wheeler on the mound and the Phillies in peak form, it’s hard to fade Philly here. Sale’s track record against the Phillies is a concern, and the Braves’ recent struggles only strengthen the case. Final Prediction: Philadelphia Phillies Moneyline
