The Astros are looking to build on their momentum after winning 1-0 against the Phillies in yesterday&#8217;s game, while Philadelphia is coming off a tough loss. Both teams possess impressive records, with the Astros sitting at 46-33 and the Phillies at 47-32, indicating that both squads are having great seasons.<\/p>\n<p>The starting pitchers present a compelling contrast. Colton Gordon, projected to start for the Astros, has faced challenges this season, ranking 176th among MLB starters according to advance metrics. Although he holds a respectable Win\/Loss record of 2-1, his <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">4.54<\/a> ERA and 3.57 xFIP suggest that he may be due for improvement. In his last outing, Gordon managed to pitch 5 innings with 2 earned runs, but he is projected to pitch only 4.9 innings today, allowing 2.6 earned runs on average.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, Zack Wheeler will take the mound for the Phillies as one of the league&#8217;s elite pitchers, currently ranked 3rd overall. With a stellar <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">2.61<\/a> ERA and 7-2 record, Wheeler is projected to pitch 6.1 innings today and is expected to allow just 2.0 earned runs. His recent performance included a solid 5-inning outing with no earned runs and 8 strikeouts against a challenging lineup.<\/p>\n<p>Offensively, the Astros rank 15th in the league, while the Phillies are 8th, showcasing Philadelphia&#8217;s strength at the plate. Despite their recent struggles, the Astros have the potential to capitalize on Wheeler\u2019s tendency to allow hits. With the game total set at a low 7.5 runs, the odds are favoring the Phillies, yet the projections suggest that Houston\u2019s offense, buoyed by their best hitter&#8217;s recent surge, could provide a surprise. As both teams look to solidify their places in the standings, this matchup is one to watch.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Philadelphia Phillies Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Zack Wheeler &#8211; Over\/Under 7.5 Strikeouts (+110\/-140)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">With 6 bats who share the same handedness in the opposing team&#8217;s projected batting order, Zack Wheeler figures to benefit from holding the platoon advantage in most plate appearances in today&#8217;s outing.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Right-handed pitchers perform better against right-handed hitters (and the same for lefties).
