The Phillies are coming into this game with a 91-61 record this season but they have not been playing great in their recent games. They have lost 2 of their last 3 games and their offense has not been good recently, averaging less than 3 runs scored per game in their last 4 games. They have been worse on the road this season as well at 39-35 this season and they have lost 4 of their last 5 road games. They are going up against a Mets team that is 84-68 this season and has been playing well recently as they are pushing to keep their Wild Card spot in this final stretch. They have won their last 3 straight games and their offense has been heating up as they have scored 10 runs in each of their last 2 games. They also lost 2 of 3 games against the Phillies on the road just last week so this is a chance for them to get revenge at home. Taijuan Walker is starting for the Phillies in this game and he is 3-6 with a 6.29 ERA this season. He has been pitching well recently as he allowed no runs in his last start, but prior to that he allowed at least 2 earned runs in 13 straight start and even ended August with 2 straight start allowing 6 earned runs in each. He has been very inconsistent all season and he has been allowing a lot of runs on the road as well. Luis Severino is starting for the Mets in this game and he is 10-6 with a 3.77 ERA this season. He allowed 3 earned runs in his last start, but he has also allowed just 1 earned run or less in 2 of his last 3 as well as 4 of his last 6 starts. He has been very consistent all season as well and has been pitching better at home recently, allowing just 2 earned runs total in his last 3 starts there. The Phillies have not been scoring a lot of runs recently and have struggled more on offense on the road as well so Severino will be able to shut them down here, and the Mets have also been heating up on offense recently so they are going to score runs in this game with the way Walker has been pitching. The Mets will win this game at home.
