Philadelphia Phillies vs. Arizona Diamondbacks Pick
1u - Zack Wheeler u2.5 Earned Runs (-150) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
This is pretty juicy but I absolutely love it. This a pretty straight forward play so we will keep it brief. Wheeler is one of the top pitchers in the league and whenever I see him at this number it gets looked at as a bet to take.
Philadelphia Phillies vs. Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction
Wheeler is under 2.5 earned runs this in 15 of his last 18 starts. The three misses were huge blowups where has allowed 6+ runs. Arizona is the opponent tonight and Wheeler has lots of experience against them. This season he already threw 7 innings of great ball against them allowing just two hits and one run. Historically these Arizona bats bat just .200 against him in 170 at bats.
Wheeler is looking as dominant as ever and if he pitches 6 innings and allowed 2 runs that would mean his ERA goes up. This a number that probably should be 1.5 with massive juice on the over. I will drink the juice on u2.5 and take the bet hitting at over an 83% hit rate. Lets roll baby!
