Colorado Rockies vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 05/10/26

Cristopher Sanchez should absolutely annihilate the Colorado Rockies on Sunday. The 6-foot-6 southpaw is off to another tremendous start in 2026 for the Phillies, boasting a 2.42 ERA and 2.38 FIP through his first 48.1 innings of work. Among his 8 starts, 6 have come in his home park, and he is set to make his 7th home start on Sunday. Sanchez has a 1.18 ERA in 38 home innings so far, and overall, he is sporting a 94th-percentile ground ball rate. He is also earning strikeouts and avoiding free passes. Colorado has a 75 wRC+ and a 30.1% strikeout rate against southpaw pitching this season.

The price on Philadelphia is -300 or greater if you want to back them; that’s a bit too rich for me. I am not laying significant juice on a -1.5-run line bet, either, so let’s pivot to a total. I favor the under in this game, as the Phillies offense hasn’t exactly been stellar. So far this season, they sit 20th in wOBA with a 97 wRC+ against righties, and Tomoyuki Sugano has been solid for the Rockies — 3.41 ERA in his first 37 innings and a 1.69 ERA in 16 innings on the road. He isn’t my favorite pitcher to back, but he is throwing strikes and earning ground balls, which should be useful in this spot. Let’s avoid the bullpens and focus on the first 5 innings of play with this under.

Rockies vs Phillies prediction: First 5 innings under 4.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable to -120.
