At 43-46, the Phillies enter another crucial week. The Nats and White Sox come to town. Here's the outlook.
PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES (43-46, NL East-3) vs. WASHINGTON NATIONALS (46-42, NL East-2)
WHERE: CBP
WHEN: MONDAY-THURSDAY 7:05
TV: CSN
PITCHING MATCH-UPS:
- Monday- Dan Haren (4-9, 6.15) vs. John Lannan (1-3, 5.15)
- Tuesday- Taylor Jordan (0-1, 2.70) vs. Cole Hamels (3-11, 4.38)
- Wednesday- Gio Gonzalez (6-3, 3.14) vs. Cliff Lee (10-2, 2.73)
- Thursday- Jordan Zimmerman (12-3, 2.57) vs. Kyle Kendrick (7-6, 3.90)
PREDICTIONS: The Nats are still very much alive in the NL East, and strangely enough, the Phillies are too, mathematically. As both teams try to decide what they are, they meet for the third time this year, this the second time in Philly. Both teams have won once. Call this a push. SPLIT.
PHILLIES vs. CHICAGO WHITE SOX ()
WHERE: CBP
WHEN: Friday 7:04, Saturday 4:05, Sunday 1:35
TV: CSN Friday and Saturday, PHL-17 Sunday
PITCHING MATCH-UPS:

- Saturday- Hector Santiago (3-5, 3.50) vs. Lannan
- Sunday- Jose Quintana (3-2, 3.69) vs. Hamels
PREDICTIONS: I hate it when this offense faces guys they don't know. With that said, I think they do ok. PHILLIES 2 of 3.
