Giants vs. Phillies Best MLB Prop Bets
Giants Best MLB Prop Bet
- Tyler Mahle OVER 4.5 Strikeouts (-107)
This will be Tyler Mahle’s second start against the Phillies this season. He threw 5.2 shutout innings with six strikeouts back on April 8 in San Francisco.
Mahle has gone OVER 4.5 strikeouts in four of five starts this season – including each of the last three –, and the Phillies obviously aren’t seeing the ball too well right now. Five strikeouts shouldn’t be too much to ask for from the righthander.
Giants vs. Phillies Prediction and Pick
I can only look to the Giants tonight in Philadelphia. Maybe the manager change will spark something in the Phillies, but they’re going to need more than that to really right the ship.
Mahle quieted the Phillies bats earlier this month, and the Giants are on the upswing after a slow start to the season. I don’t see why they’re such big underdogs tonight in Philadelphia.
Pick: Giants +141
