Betting insights
- Wheeler (12-5, 2.72 ERA) has been on fire for the Phillies over his last three starts. He's pitched 20 innings and given up just three earned runs while recording 23 Ks. Today, he faces Reynaldo Lopez (7-4, 2.06) in a premium pitching matchup at Atlanta's Truist Park.
- Watch out, the Royals are heating up. The winners of five straight are now tied with the Twins for second in the AL Central — 2.5 games back of the Guardians for the top spot. In a game against the Angels today, Kansas City will send breakout starter Cole Ragans (10-7, 3.18) to the mound to face Tyler Anderson (9-11, 3.30).
- Speaking of the Twins, they have their hands full today with the Padres, who enter the contest on a 12-3 run. Minnesota will have the pitching advantage, starting Bailey Ober (12-5, 3.49 ERA) opposite San Diego's Martin Perez (3-5, 4.62).
- The Guardians and Yankees square off in the Bronx. Matthew Boyd (0-0, 1.69 ERA) makes his second start of the season for Cleveland after spending over a year on the injured list. New York sends Luis Gil (12-6, 3.26 ERA) to the mound. The rookie is having a great season but is coming off a start where he allowed four runs to the White Sox.
