Giants at Phillies picks and predictions
Prediction
Phillies 5, Giants 2
Moneyline
PASS.
There is better value on the Phillies’ (-200) run line.
Run line/Against the spread
BET PHILLIES -1.5 (+100).
The Phillies have scored 4 or more runs in 9 of their last 10 games while allowing 4 or fewer in 7 of their last 10. They have scored 23 runs in this series against the Giants and allowed just 10. Six of their last 9 wins have come by 2 or more runs, which will again be the case Monday against a rookie pitcher.
Over/Under
BET UNDER 7.5 (-110).
While Black is unproven for the Giants, Wheeler has only allowed 9 earned runs in 7 starts for the Phillies, including just 1 total in his last 3. The Giants have scored 4 or fewer runs in each of their last 10 games, while the Phillies have scored 4 or fewer in 2 of their last 4.
