Final Betting Pick

The Phillies’ money line at -102 seems like a good pick. They have started the season with a strong 7-2 record. Zack Wheeler’s pitching has been effective, with a 1.39 ERA over 13 innings, which gives the Phillies an advantage. The Braves, on the other hand, are struggling with a 1-8 record and have not performed well on the road.

The under 7.0 runs is another solid choice. Both teams have been in low-scoring games recently. Wheeler’s strong pitching, along with Chris Sale’s 5.40 ERA, suggests that runs may be limited. The Phillies’ pitching staff has been effective, ranking 7th in ERA, which supports the under bet.
