Aaron Nola (1-2, 3.74 ERA) will take the mound in the 1st game of the series for the Phillies. Nola didn't factor into the decision during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Milwaukee, allowing one hit and one walk with seven strikeouts in seven scoreless innings. In his last start against the Mets he allowed 3 runs in 3.1 innings.

Megill registered the win during Sunday's 6-2 victory over Arizona, allowing two runs on five hits and a walk with seven strikeouts in 6.2 innings. In his last start against the Phillies he threw for 5.1 scoreless innnigs and struckout 5 batters.

BETTING TRENDS

Philadelphia are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games.

Philadelphia are 3-11 SU in their last 14 games on the road.

The total has gone UNDER in 7 of NY Mets' last 10 games against Philadelphia.

NY Mets are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games at home.

Prediction

The Phillies are on fire right now they destroyed the Rockies and won the 4 games of the series scoring an average of 8 runs per game but they'll be facing another hot team who already beat them earlier this season. The Mets have won 4 of their last 5 games at home and will send Megill to the mound who hold the Phillies to zero runs across 5 innings. Give me the Mets.
