THE INSIDERS ROOM'S 10* VERY EARLY NATIONAL LEAGUE BLOWOUT OF THE MONTH (OFF 4-1 SUNDAY!)
(MLB) Philadelphia vs. NY Mets, 09/07/2020 1:10 PM, Score: 9 - 8
Money Line: -121.00 Philadelphia (Away)
Result: Win
This is a 10* NL BLOWOUT OF THE MONTH on the Phillies.

Enough is enough! After two straight losses, I like Philadelphia to bounce back in the finale of this important four game set.

David Peterson is 4-1 with a 3.03 ERA for the Mets, while Zack Wheeler is 4-0 with a 2.20 ERA for the Phillies.

Wheeler faces his former team here with a chip on his shoulder and his performance is ultimately what I'm basing this pick upon.

Peterson has been decent, but he's been bouncing back and forth from the rotation to the pen and I think his numbers are unsustainable.

Wheeler on the other hand is likely also due for a bit of regression, but his form is spectacular right now and I don't see any big drop offs occurring here.

The Philly offense can rake against southpaws as well, which spells trouble for Peterson.

A great price on a great pitcher!

Good luck, NP
