The moneyline has seen a stable trend with the Phillies maintaining their position as favorites since the opening odds were released. This consistency in betting sentiment underscores confidence in their ability to secure a win against the Marlins. On the other hand, despite being underdogs, the Marlins' odds have shown resilience, indicating that they are not to be underestimated.


In terms of total runs expected from this game, both FanDuel and PointsBet have set the line at 7.5 with over odds at +100 and under odds leaning slightly more unfavorable at -121. This suggests an anticipation of a moderately high-scoring game, reflecting confidence in both teams' offensive capabilities but with a slight inclination towards a tighter defensive play keeping scores within check.
