Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins Prediction

The Philadelphia Phillies are due for a bounce back performance to keep padding their lead in the NL East, and this is just what the doctor ordered. The Miami Marlins have thrown in the towel on the season and the jury is still out on Valente Bellozo given the small sample size. Taijuan Walker may have rust after spending a couple of months on the sideline, but I’m banking on the better team at home. Give me the Phillies and the RL for max betting value.
