The Phillies' lineup is nowhere near full-strength, and it's not particularly imposing even when it is. German Marquez has three excellent starts to his credit in his five with the Rockies, and the two times he was lit up both came in Colorado. The Rockies have won six of their last eight and are scoring runs in bunches. Phillies starter Zach Elfin isn't a strikeout pitcher, and he could quickly get in trouble against this dangerous lineup.
This is a really poor lineup for the Phillies tonight with Zach Eflin on the mound. Eflin projects to be a slightly below average starting pitcher and he's facing one of the best offenses in baseball. The loss of Mikael Franco, Michael Saunders and Cameron Rupp really hurt the Phillies offensive upside. Take the Rockies to stay hot.
The Rockies are winning 69 percent of my simulations Tuesday in Philadelphia. Colorado starter German Marquez has allowed one run and seven hits over his last 13 innings. Back the Rockies.
