Game Analysis:
It’s a cross country National League matchup as the Giants travel to Philly to take on the Phillies. Both squads are looking playoff bound, but these games become more and more important as we get closer to fall baseball. Here’s what you should know so you can responsibly make the most out of this sweet offer from BetMGM.
The Giants have quietly been having a pretty solid season. They’re in one of the most difficult divisions in the MLB but are six games above .500 and second in the division. While they’re bats aren’t super hot, unlike the author of this blog, the defense is top ten in the MLB based on average runs allowed compared to the Phillies who are tied for thirteenth. San Francisco also has a top ten bullpen by most statistics, Logan Webb and Alex Cobb have both been pretty filthy on the bump. On the other side of the ball Thairo Estrada is also quietly playing some really good baseball. LaMonte Wade Jr. is also pretty good, but will this team be enough to stop the Phillies on their home field?
If you ask me I would say no. The Giants are currently 3-7 in their last ten, while the Phils have been more consistent. They have a much better offensive rating, and sure a little worse of a defense but not by that much. By batting average this offense is top ten scoring over 4.5 runs a game on average. They also have a top ten pitching staff by ERA, have more strikeouts per game, a better fielding percentage, and a lower batting average allowed. Trea Turner seems to be getting out of his slump, Castellanos is always dangerous to hit a dinger after something bad happens, and Bryce Harper remains one of the best and most electric players in baseball. This team has the star power, but also the role players really have been great. Wheeler and Lorenzen have been the best starters on this team and despite his struggles Austin Nola seems to just find ways to win. Overall this is a team that wants to get back to the championship and some wins here would definitely help that.
The Phillies are a more motivated and better team than the Giants. Bet on Philadelphia and get your own Friday Beers merch!
