Preview of DET vs PHI Prediction

Philadelphia enters tonight with a strong home advantage: left-handed Cristopher Sanchez has posted a 2.55 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and keeps hitters under 5.4% barrel rate, making him one of MLB’s most effective starters at the moment. In contrast, Detroit’s Charlie Morton has struggled with a 5.42 ERA and 1.56 WHIP—his highest in over a decade.

Detroit’s offense has cooled off significantly: since July 1 they’ve produced one of the league’s highest strikeout rates and a wOBA near .308 (21st in MLB). Sanchez’s recent dominance—9.57 K/9 and 26.3 K%—aligns well against a Tigers lineup in free-fall, particularly in Philadelphia where they’re 34‑20 in home games.
