After taking down the Baltimore Orioles twice in their series, the Tampa Bay Rays will attempt to beat another playoff-bound team as they visit the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday at Citizens Bank Park. Already out of the postseason contention, the Rays are thriving in a spoilers’ role, winning four of their last six games against teams – the Orioles and the Minnesota Twins - fighting for a place in the MLB playoffs. The Rays have posted excellent numbers from the mound over their last five matches, surrendering a 2.51 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and .260 OBP with 9.4 strikeouts per game. The Phillies have won seven of their 10 games these past two weeks, scoring 5.4 runs per game and pitching a 4.20 ERA. Although the Atlanta Braves and the New York Mets have a mathematical chance of knocking them off the top of the NL East, Philadelphia remains the heavy favorite to win the division title at the end of the regular season.

Our Philadelphia Phillies vs Tampa Bay Rays Prediction

The Phillies swept all three games with the Rays last season. Philadelphia has tapped Christopher Sanchez, who is 3-2 with a 4.18 ERA in his previous five starts. Sanchez performed well in his last face-off against the Rays, stifling them to just one run in six innings on July 23, 2023. Moreover, Philadelphia will not allow their losing streak to extend to three games since another setback would send them into a precarious situation, especially if the Braves and Mets win a bigger portion of their remaining games. Our betting prediction for Philadelphia Phillies vs. Tampa Bay Rays: Back the Phillies to beat -1.5 runs, +106, at FanDuel.

Prediction:

 

Philadelphia Phillies will cover -1.5 runs

+106
