The Philadelphia Phillies dropped Game 1 of this series by a score of 7-6, but they bounced back in a big way on Tuesday. A 10 run first frame certainly didn't hurt, and I think they'll score plenty today as well coming up against a depleted Mets bullpen and a starter with a bloated ERA.

Mets right-hander Zack Wheeler (1-1, 7.47 ERA) is coming off his best outing of the season, six innings of two-run ball at Atlanta. He did however struggle with his command again and has issued 11 walks in 15 2/3 innings. Wheeler was tagged with seven runs in two starts covering 11 2/3 innings against the Phillies last season

Phillies right-hander Jake Arrieta (2-1, 2.25 ERA) meanwhile is off to an excellent start to the year and fanned eight through seven innings of one-run ball at Miami last time out. In 2018, Arrieta held the Mets to just five runs in 18 1/3 innings of work and he owns a 2.34 ERA in 10 career starts against the club.

10* play on Philadelphia Phillies.
