Pick: Phillies -1.5 (+100)
The Milwaukee Brewers and the Philadelphia Phillies will open up a series here on Monday night at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. Both of these teams are off to a solid start to the 2024 Major League Baseball season and this could be a potential preview of a National League Divisional Series matchup in the postseason. Both Milwaukee and Philadelphia find themselves sitting in first place of their respective divisions coming into the month of June, and both of them will look to pick up a victory to extend their lead even further. As well as on the right foot with a huge momentum boost as well.
Milwaukee has been playing consistent baseball throughout the first three months of the season and they come into this game with 36 victories through their first 59 games of the year. As the season gets ready to progress under the century mark of games remaining Milwaukee will look to keep the momentum rolling throughout this game on Monday night against the Philadelphia Phillies. Prior to the season starting not many people would’ve predicted Milwaukee to be on top of the National League Central division however teams like Cincinnati and Chicago have been a bit disappointing throughout the early part of the year.
Milwaukee will look to capitalize on that before teams like Cincinnati wake up midway through the season and build up a strong enough lead that they will not have to worry about them, breathing down their neck through the back half of the season. Although it is still possible that we get a close division race in the Central, as of right now, the Brewers look like the clear favorites to take home the division. Milwaukee comes into this game as one of the hottest teams in baseball as they have won five consecutive games and eight out of their last 10 on the year. They will look to make it six straight victories of another solid performance here on Monday night.

The Philadelphia Phillies are absolutely rolling and they’ve been the best team in baseball throughout the first couple months of the season. They will look to keep that momentum intact with another victory over the Milwaukee Brewers here on Monday night at home as they look to further extend their lead in the National League East division. Coming into the regular season many people expect them to go head to head with the Atlanta Braves for the division title but now Atlanta has Ronald Acuña for the season and Philadelphia continues to rack up victories, it is almost a foregone conclusion.
Philadelphia could potentially all but officially lock up the division before the end of July at the rate they are playing at. As they look to get back to the World Series and this time lift the title. Zach Wheeler will get the start for Philadelphia here on Monday night at home and he has been incredible throughout the early part of the year. He comes into this game with six victories to his name and he will look to pick up his seventh win of the season here on Monday night against Milwaukee. As Philadelphia looks to pick up their 41st victory in their first 60 games of the season.
Betting trends to consider in this matchup:
- Philadelphia is 14-4 after a loss
- Philadelphia is 24-9 at home
- Milwaukee is 10-10 against teams above .500
I expect the Philadelphia Phillies to get back into the win column and snap their current losing streak with a victory here on Monday night at home against Milwaukee. In the process, I also expect them to snap Milwaukee’s five game winning streak here on Monday night with a solid outing from Wheeler on the mound. I look for Philadelphia to up and open up this series with a huge momentum boosting win against a fellow division leader in the National League league.
