Phillies vs Diamondbacks Prediction, Betting Pick
Taijuan Walker is going to be piggybacking tonight for the Phillies. With Walker Buehler today, and so in a piggyback situation, the starter usually doesn't go as long as he normally does.
So Walker might only go four innings today, maybe five. I doubt any longer than that. And so if we're getting a five-and-a-half line at any sort of reasonable odds, I think that is a great bet today because Walker probably will not be in the game long enough to give up that many hits unless he is just really, really bad against the Diamondbacks.
Pick: Taijuan Walker Under 5.5 Hits Allowed
