Philadelphia Phillies vs. Washington Nationals
- Leg 1: Phillies -1.5 (-142)
- Leg 2: Over 7.5 (-120)
- Leg 3: Zack Wheeler Under 5.5 strikeouts (+114)
- Leg 4: Rhys Hoskins to record 2+ total bases (+100)
The Phillies were luckily able to split the doubleheader yesterday against the Nationals and gained a game for the last Wild Card Spot. Coming into today, they’ve lost 11 of their previous 15, and now each game is important as they hold a one-game lead over the Brewers.
They'll have Zach Wheeler on the mound, who has been dominant against everyone except the Mets in the last few starts allowing two or fewer earned runs in five of his previous seven starts.
Patrick Corbin will be on the other side, and his struggles this season have been mentioned many times before. He's been much better as of late with a 2.90 ERA over his last five starts, excluding the early exit because of a back spasm against the Braves.
The Phillies should take advantage of Corbin, who they have beaten three times this season and have gotten 13 runs off of in three games.

Maimi Marlins vs. Milwaukee Brewers
The Brewers are lucky that they have an opportunity to win this series in a rubber match. The offense has been virtually non-existent, and they are 23rd in wRC+ (71) and 22nd in slugging (.329).
Freddy Peralta will get the start after a relief appearance just a couple of days ago. It was a disaster for him, going 1.2 innings and allowing four earned. This will be his third time on the mound in the last seven days, and you have to wonder if this unusual schedule will hurt him.
Pablo Lopez would love to end his season on a strong note after struggling most of the season half after being an early National League Cy Young candidate. He's won two of his last three outings with three straight quality starts and has overcome a lack of run support.
Pitchers are creatures of habit, and Peralta not on his usual schedule seemed to have affected him a couple of days ago. The Brewers’ offense is not in an excellent spot to have to make up the hole they could get into.

New York Mets vs. Atlanta Braves
The most important series will have its finale on Sunday Night Baseball. With a win tonight, the Braves would hold a two-game with three remaining, while the Mets could bring this back into a tie.
Chris Bassitt will have the task of saving the Mets division hopes. In two outings this season against the Braves, he has two quality starts allowing just four earned and striking out 14 in 13 innings. The Braves have the third-highest strikeout percentage this season (24.5), so expect Bassitt to put a solid performance there.
In a very talented rotation, the veteran Charlie Morton has been more inconsistent. He’s in the midst of a brutal stretch with a 6.23 ERA in his last four starts. He’s fortunate the Braves are 3-1 in those games, and he's seen 18 runs of support in that span.
The Braves’ offense has been much better overall, and that will push them to a win and basically the National League East title.
