Colorado Rockies vs Philadelphia Phillies Predictions 4/20/2023

 

After Monday’s game was postponed due to weather, Philadelphia and the White Sox split a doubleheader Tuesday, setting up Wednesday’s series finale.

 

The Phillies had a 7-11 record going into Wednesday and were fourth in the NL East, 7 matches behind the Braves for first place in the division.

 

Josh Harrison (run, four RBI) and Nick Castellanos each contributed three hits for Philadelphia on Tuesday, while J.T. Realmuto, Bryson Stott, and Alec Bohm each contributed two singles in the first game.

 

Harrison hit his first season-opening home run. Despite giving up four runs on eight hits, no walks, and five strikeouts over five innings, Zack Wheeler (1-0) was given the victory.

 

With two strikeouts in his 1-2-3 ninth inning, Jose Alvarado earned his first save. As the bats went quiet in the finale, Marsh had the team’s lone hit, a double. 

 

In this game, Matt Strahm, pitching for the Phillies, is making his sixth appearance and fourth start of the year.

 

He pitched 12.2 innings this season and is 1-1 with a 2.13 ERA, 0.947 WHIP, five walks, and 16 strikeouts. In his most recent start, against the Reds on the road on Saturday, Strahm was unsuccessful. 

 

  • The total went OVER in 4 of Philadelphia’s last 6 matches.
  • The Philadelphia Phillies are 4-2 SU in their last 6 matches.

Colorado Rockies vs Philadelphia Phillies. The MLB pick for this game is the Philadelphia Phillies.

 

The Rockies really struggled over the past week or so, having suffered seven straight defeats coming into Wednesday’s game against the Pirates.

 

Colorado must now return to the road, where they continued to struggle, recording a 2-7 record thus far in 2023.

 

Philadelphia struggled with consistency this season, but they are at least 3-3 at home, so they still have a ton of home games left on the schedule after playing 13 of their first 19 matches away from the city.

 

Last season, the Phillies won all four of the clubs’ encounters at Citizens Bank Park, making it difficult to feel optimistic about the Rockies’ chances this time around. The Philadelphia Phillies will win to a predicted score of 5-2.
