Philadelphia Phillies – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-170)

Bryce Harper has struggled with his Barrel% lately; his 12.1% seasonal rate has dropped to 0% over the past week.

Elly De La Cruz has seen a substantial gain in his exit velocity this year; just compare his 93.6-mph average to last season’s 90.7-mph EV.
