Phillies hope lineup helps out Walker
The Phillies are picking up where they left off from last season, where they look to remain one of the top teams in the National League. To wrap up the series, they’ll turn to Taijuan Walker, who has struggled so far, allowing seven runs in 4.2 innings pitched, and the hope is that he can rebound after the rough debut to the season.
Walker has struggled but the lineup is one of the best in baseball, averaging 4.71 runs per game with 16 runs in the last two games. Kyle Schwarber has three home runs and 15 total bases while Brandon Marsh has 13 total bases but the rest of the lineup has stepped up as well. Adolis Garcia has 13 total bases and a 128 OPS+ while Bryce Harper and Trea Turner have added two homers and 22 total bases to round out the lineup.
Colorado hopes lineup and Sugano improve
The Rockies are off to a slow start to the season and look poised for another disappointment unless things turn around. Tomoyuki Sugano will start the upcoming game, and he looks to improve on a rough start where he allowed a run in 4.2 innings pitched.

What’s let the Rockies down is their hapless lineup, which averages only 3.57 goals per game despite playing in hitter-friendly Coors Field. Ezequiel Tovar has 14 total bases and an OPS+ of 115 while TJ Rumfield has 13 total bases and an OPS+ of 180 but the rest of the lineup has struggled, and opposing pitchers can eliminate the hapless lineup as a result.
