Phillies vs Blue Jays Prediction
The current betting odds have the Phillies listed as a slight favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Phillies have looked good in their games this season with their 35-30 record overall which has them right near the top of the NL East. They have been a good road team too with their 16-13 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays haven't looked good in their games this season with their 32-34 record overall which has them right in the middle of the AL East. They have looked a lot better in their own ballpark though with their 19-14 home record this season. The Blue Jays haven't looked good this year since making it to the World Series last season. They are only 5-5 in their last 10 games with a lot of pitching issues, and their offense has been a glaring issue for them this season too. They are going to have a tough time putting up runs in this series too. The Phillies had a terrible start to the season and even fired their manager early on, but now they have been rolling lately and are 7-3 in their last 10 games. They are going with Wheeler in this one and he has been a stud for them this season. He is 5-1 with a 2.31 ERA and the team has had a ton of success with him on the mound. They have won 7 of their last 8 games with him starting and he is coming off another great start in which he only gave up 2 earned runs, something that has been a common theme for him. The Blue Jays have looked a lot better lately, but they have still been a really up and down team this year, so look for the Phillies to take advantage of that in this series as they continue to get hot. The best way to place a bet here is on the Phillies to win this game.

Notable Quotes
"It seemed like the whole series felt like a back and forth, never felt really comfortable with a lead. Just a battle. Those guys put good at-bats on us, and put a lot of balls in play. They mixed and matched with their righties and lefties. You don't really get a bunch of good matchups where you get sections of the order, so they make it tough on you." - Don Mattingly after his team’s win against the White Sox in their game on Sunday.
"I thought Kev threw the ball really well." - John Schneider on Kevin Gausman after his team’s win against the Orioles in their game on Sunday.
