Mets vs Phillies Prediction

The Sunday MLB schedule will get started with the conclusion of the London Series between the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies. Be ready for the baseball season with all of our MLB predictions. The Mets (27-36) have split their previous ten games and are trying to hang around in the NL Wild Card race. On Saturday, New York SS Francisco Lindor had a pair of hits and scored twice during a 7-2 loss against Philadelphia. 

Thirty-five year old southpaw Jose Quintana (1-5 5.17 ERA) will take the mound for the Mets in this matchup. New York has lost Quintana’s previous three starts and he has given up nine runs over his last 16 innings. 

The Philadelphia Phillies are riding a four-game winning streak and hold an 8.5 game cushion over Atlanta for the top spot in the NL East Division. On Saturday, Philadelphia SP Ranger Suarez (10-1) allowed two runs in five plus innings to earn the victory. Bryce Harper, Nick Castellanos, and Whit Merrifield all went deep for the Phillies (45-19).

Thirty-one year old righty Taijuan Walker (3-1 5.73 ERA) is struggling to keep a spot in the rotation for the Phillies. Last time out, Walker surrendered four runs in five innings during a 5-4 home loss versus St. Louis.
