The Phillies have the clear starting pitching edge. Zack Wheeler has been one of the most consistent aces in MLB for eight seasons now and is off to another strong start. I don't expect him to stumble here, as  since 2021 Wheeler is 4-1 with a 1.25 ERA against St. Louis. On the other side, Liberator has a 4.35 career ERA against the Phillies. With the superior pitching staff and defense, I have to back Philadelphia.
