Zack Wheeler has been a rock for the Phillies and owns solid recent results vs. the Braves. Our MLB betting picks expect the Philadelphia starter to guide his club to victory on the road.
The Atlanta Braves host the Philadelphia Phillies tonight in the first game of a crucial three-game series between NL East foes. Philadelphia holds a seven-game lead over Atlanta in the division heading into the set at Truist Park.
The veteran righthander has gone Under 2.5 earned runs in 19 of his starts this season, including 14 starts with just one earned run or fewer. He threw six shutout innings against the Braves back on Opening Day, allowing only five hits with five strikeouts and no walks. However, this Braves lineup isn’t as dangerous as it once was. Of course, Ronald Acuna Jr. is out for the season, Ozzie Albies is on the IL, and Austin Riley joined them after being hit by a pitch on Sunday. Marcell Ozuna is a looming threat in the middle of the lineup, but the support isn’t quite there.
The Phillies took three of four against the Nationals over the weekend and have a great chance to keep the momentum going with Wheeler on the mound in Atlanta.I’m rolling with a safer same-game parlay tonight while focusing on Wheeler. He’s recorded at least six strikeouts in 17 of his 24 starts, including exactly six in five outings.
