Kansas City Royals vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction
Cameron has been solid this season and is even better on the road, where he has a 2.90 ERA and .223 allowed batting average. The problem is, the Royals have lost 6 of their last 7 games and aren’t a team I’m excited to back. Nola is having a down year with his 6.24 ERA and 1.45 WHIP, but the Phillies are so hot it probably doesn’t matter. Also, we know what Nola is capable of when he’s right, so I’m not exactly concerned with his numbers overall. Give me the Phillies.
