Phillies vs Mets Predictions Picks Odds 6-9

Phillies dominate Mets in London, seeking sweep. Offense and pitching strong, Castellanos and Harper lead the charge. Predictions favor Philly.

The Philadelphia Phillies have been dominating the New York Mets, whether it's on the East Coast or across the pond. As they aim for a mini-series sweep in London on Sunday, my predictions favor the NL juggernauts to continue their offensive onslaught. London witnessed the real deal as the highest-scoring team in the majors secured a 7-2 win over the Mets on Saturday. Philadelphia's bats have been consistent all season, ranking among the top in average, on-base percentage, slugging, and OPS.

Their top-tier pitching has also been impressive, holding New York to just two runs despite allowing 10 hits. With a team ERA of 2.90 and a bullpen boasting a 0.87 ERA in recent weeks, the Phillies are a force to be reckoned with. On the other hand, the struggling Mets have only managed nine wins in their last 27 games, relying on high-scoring games to secure victories. With the third-worst ERA in baseball over the last 30 days, New York has surrendered the most runs in the league at 152.

Lefty Jose Quintana will take the mound for the Mets, looking to improve on his 5.17 ERA. However, Quintana has struggled in his recent outings, giving up three earned runs in each of his last three games, including five home runs. The Phillies have dominated the recent matchups, winning five of the last six meetings and are expected to come out on top in Sunday's game.

Nick Castellanos has been a standout performer for the Phillies, hitting a solo homer in Saturday's win in London. With back-to-back home runs and consistent hitting performances in his last seven games, Castellanos poses a threat to Quintana. Bryce Harper also had a strong showing in London, going 3-for-4 with a home run and an RBI. With hits in six of his last eight games, Harper is expected to continue his impressive performance on Sunday.
