Philadelphia Phillies vs. Los Angeles Dodgers
Tuesday, August 06, 2024 – 10:10 PM ET at Dodger Stadium
The AI Model projects the Phillies will sneak by with a 4.0-3.9 win over the Dodgers. At -110, the Phillies have enough of an advantage to roll the dice by taking Philadelphia on the moneyline.
The Dodgers Have No Power Against Lefties
The Dodgers really lack power against lefties. The projected lineup has hit a .123 ISO and wOBA of .317 against lefties over the last month. In addition, the starting lineup has struck out more than 27% of the time and has only walked 8.2%.
They’ll take on Cristopher Sanchez of the Phillies, who has allowed a .094 ISO and wOBA of .318 to his last 102 batters. Sanchez typically induces a high ground ball rate and limits walks, which will be crucial for his start against the Dodgers.
Clayton Kershaw Is Aging
Even the best pitchers in our generation will eventually fall off.
Clayton Kershaw came back from an injury and has allowed a .200 ISO and wOBA of .391 to his last 34 righties. He’s also struck out just 14.6% of batters and has allowed more than 31% of line drives to his last 41 hitters.
Meanwhile, the Phillies’ projected lineup has smashed a .226 ISO and has struck out just 14.2% of the time against lefties over the last month.
The Pick
The AI Model wants us to fade Kershaw, and I agree.
