Rockies vs Phillies Prediction

The season is still young but the Rockies look awful and appear to be one of the worst teams in baseball. I’m just not excited to get behind this team right now, especially if the offense isn’t going to show up. This Phillies lineup should have a field day at Coors and while Nola can be hit or miss, he’s an all-star-caliber pitcher when right. On paper this is a mismatch and I’m not going to get cute. Give me the Phillies and I’ll lay the RL to shave down the price.
