Can the Philadelphia Phillies get back into the race in the National League East?
A rough patch has seen the Phillies fall to third in the East, 4.5 games behind the Mets. It is looking like a win total in the 80s will be enough to take the division, if anyone can get hot.
Today, Philly plays the Pirates, after losing the first two of the series. You can't get swept by Pittsburgh in this spot and hope to keep in the race.
We have Kyle Gibson vs Mitch Keller as the matchup, and the Pirates' starter has an ERA of 7.04. That is a number you can't ignore.
