The Philadelphia Phillies will go for a series win when they wrap up their 3-game set this afternoon with the Los Angeles Angels at Angel Stadium. The Phillies are expected to have their ace on the hill, Zack Wheeler. Over his last 3 starts Wheeler has been dealing, going 2-1 with a 1.96 ERA and a 0.87 WHIP. The Angels are expected to counter with Patrick Sandoval and over his last 3 starts, not so good. Sandoval is 0-2 with a 6.75 ERA and a 1.77 WHIP, which doesn’t bode well when you have the worst bullpen in the league. Philadelphia has played well on the road, at 10-5, and LA will be without Mike Trout and Anthony Rendon.
