White Sox vs Phillies MLB Betting Preview
It took me a while to figure out why this total was popping. I need to have at least a reasonable appreciation for what the numbers are telling me.
Philadelphia is a positive run environment (104 PRF) with temperatures expected in the low 90s and a double-digit wind blowing out. On top of that, you have Andrew Painter, whose best non-pitch modeling estimator is a 4.41 SIERA (certainly far better than his 5.74 ERA, but still).
Then I noticed that these conditions have historically been worth less than a 5% boost in this park, and Randy Wolf is a pitcher leaning umpire. Also, Painter’s competent pitch modeling (4.02 Bot ERA, 105 Pitching+) is at least slightly encouraging.
For all the hype this team gets since firing their manager and going on a hot streak, the projected Philadelphia lineup has just a 98 wRC+ over the last month, and the team has a 90 wRC+ against RHP this year.
In addition to a capable pitcher, the White Sox also project a defense worth 12 FRV this season.
Lastly, the Phillies have the number one bullpen over the last 30 days (3.39 FIP/3.05 xFIP/2.65 SIERA) in addition to being Sean’s second-rated bullpen.
White Sox vs Phillies Pick, Betting Analysis
Sure, Painter’s numbers scare me, but I have both offenses rated only slightly above average, and this line feels far too high.
I would play this to 9, but drop to 0.5u below 9.5.
Pick: Under 9.5
