On the road, Warren has a 4.24 ERA and a .276 batting average allowed. Even with a rocky July, Sanchez has a 2.71 ERA and 1.19 WHIP on the season. In 78.1 innings at home, Sanchez has a 1.15 ERA and a .197 allowed batting average. He’s one of the best pitchers in baseball this season. The Phillies are also due for an offensive breakout after quiet performances lately. Give me the Phillies and the RL for max betting value.
