Diamondbacks vs Phillies Prediction
The Phillies are the better team, but Walker has been hittable all season, and he’s allowed 22 hits and 13 runs in his last 15 innings. Walker has allowed 17 runs in his last 20 innings. Nelson has allowed 17 hits and 5 runs in his last 24 innings. In 75.1 home innings, Nelson has a 2.51 ERA and .200 allowed batting average. The Diamondbacks are also fighting for their wild card lives, while the Phillies are in a comfortable spot in the NL. Pretty close to a must win game for the Diamondbacks. I’ll lay the reasonable price.
