The Phillies are 28-13. That's the best record in baseball. They've won 13 of their last 16 games. The Mets are below .500 with a mediocre offense. The Phillies have a far better offense and the superior starting pitcher going.

So I find this a low lay price to back the Phillies.

The pitching matchup is Cristopher Sanchez vs Sean Manaea.

Sanchez has allowed just one earned in four of his past five starts. He faces a Mets offense that is 15th in runs, 19th in batting average and 14th in homers.

Manaea has a 4.30 home ERA. He goes against a Phillies attack that ranks second in runs, third in batting average and fifth in home runs.
