Giants vs Phillies Prediction

The Monday MLB schedule will get underway with a matinee between the San Francisco Giants and the Philadelphia Phillies from Citizens Bank Park. Be ready for the baseball season with all of our MLB predictions. The Giants (15-20) have dropped three straight and have fallen 7.5 games off the pace in the NL West Division race. Last night, San Francisco SP Logan Webb (3-3) gave up five runs (4 ER) in four innings during a 5-4 road loss against Philadelphia. 

San Francisco manager Bob Melvin has yet to name a starting pitcher for the series finale. The Giants currently rank 24th in the majors with 4,55 ERA and a 1.34 WHIP.

The Philadelphia Phillies are riding a five-game winning streak and hold a 2.5 game lead over Atlanta for the top spot in the NL East Division. On Sunday, Philadelphia SP Taijuan Walker (2-0) allowed three runs and struck out seven batters across six plus frames to earn the victory. Bryce Harper hit a three-run blast to power the offense for the Phillies (24-11), who improved to 13-16 at home 

The Phillies will give the nod to twenty-seven year old southpaw Cristopher Sanchez (1-3 3.68 ERA) on Monday. Philadelphia has lost Sanchez’s last two starts and he has given up nine runs (5 ER) over his last eight innings.
