Prediction published on 5/8/26, 3:22 PM  by Carlos Zabala | Modified on 5/8/26 at 11:45 PM in MLB Picks

On Thursday, after losing six straight games, the Rockies bounced back and defeated the Mets 6-2, concluding the series. From the high altitude of Coors Field, they will travel to Citizens Bank Park to face the Phillies.

The Rockies salvaged the final game of the series in Colorado, a game pitched by Colombian José Quintana, who went nearly six innings and allowed only two earned runs. Mejía, Bernardino, and Senzatela then relieved him. Senzatela, formerly a starter for the team, now comes in late in games. He pitched the final two innings and earned the win. Jake McCarthy, the hero of the day, hit a grand slam that was allowed despite the Mets' challenge, who argued it was a foul.

On Thursday, the Athletics played the Phillies. But after a losing streak of more than ten games earlier in the season that raised concerns, things are now looking much better for them in May. They took three of four games in Miami against the Marlins and two of three against the Athletics.
