On Tuesday, the Philadelphia Phillies open a short two-game set at Fenway Park. The Phillies are coming off a three-game sweep over the Mets that concluded with 6-2 victory on Sunday. While Boston is coming off of getting swept in four straight games by the Yankees.
Philadelphia is in second place in the National League East just two games behind both the Marlins and Braves. The Red Sox, on the other hand, sit in the basement of the AL East with no light in sight of coming out.
Philadelphia Phillies
Phillies are hot right now as they are coming off of a sweep of their divisional rival in the Mets for the first time since 2015.
Bryce Harper is batting .364 to lead Philadelphia and also leads the team in on-base percentage with .493. Catcher JT Realmuto is leading the ball club in home runs with eight and RBIs with 20. Realmuto’s eight home runs are tied for third-best in the entire league.
Zach Eflin returns to the bump for the fighting Phils as he’s trying to get his first win on the season. Eflin is 0-1 with a 3.60 ERA to begin the year and has surrendered just two walks to go with his 15 strikeouts on the year.
Boston Red Sox
Red Sox have been abysmal to start the year. They are 6-16 with no hope in sight of even sniffing the playoffs. Every other starter than Nathan Evoldi is TBD, which can’t be good not knowing who has the ball in their hand the next day.
Kevin Pillar is batting .313 to lead the Sox in hitting and the center fielder is the team leader in hits with 21 and on-base percentage at .352. First baseman Mitch Moreland is leading Boston in home runs with six on the year to go with his 12 RBI’s.
Red Sox actually knows who is on the mound tomorrow and it is veteran right-hander Zach Godley. Godley is 0-2 with an 8.60 ERA to go with his 14 strikeouts and six walks.
Free Philadelphia Phillies vs. Boston Red Sox MLB Prediction:
Phillies are coming into form after taking a hiatus due to COVID and it looks like they have the perfect opponent to pile on some wins to get into the thick of this division race. I love the Phillies here to get the win and move into a position to capture the NL East.
