Philadelphia ace Aaron Nola takes the mound this afternoon with a 2.27 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, 2.62 FIP and 3.03 xFIP in fourteen starts this season, a span covering 91.0 innings. The 25-year-old exhibits great command and keeps hitters on his toes.

Nola finished the month of May with a 1.80 ERA, 0.90 WHIP, 2.04 FIP and 2.32 xFIP across 40.0 innings of work, together with a 10.35 K/9 rate, a 1.80 BB/9 rate and a 53.2% ground ball rate. Let's also note that Nola is 3-0 with a 1.38 ERA and 1.23 WHIP in four career starts. Philadelphia is 8-2 in Nola's last ten starts, 5-1 in Nola's last six starts during game 3 of a series and 4-0 in his previous four outings with four days of rest.

Milwaukee right-hander Chase Anderson has struggled and this isn't good.


Take the Phillies here with confidence on Sunday afternoon.
