Padres to win vs. Phillies
The Phillies have had the upper hand in this matchup of late, as they took the series opener Tuesday night and swept the Padres at the end of May. Making things tougher for San Diego is that Sanchez gets the nod for Philly, and he's riding a 44 2/3 innings scoreless streak that has vaulted him to being the favorite for NL Cy Young this year. The model thinks it's worth backing San Diego on Wednesday, though, as the Padres win in 36% of simulations, a result that's trading at 35 cents per share at Kalshi.

The Astros have started to wake up after a dreadful start to the year, but they still sit six games behind Seattle in the AL West.

The model has Houston winning 48% of the time, and an Astros win is priced at 42 cents per share at Kalshi.

The Diamondbacks take Wednesday's matchup in 43% of simulations, and that's trading at 37 cents a share at Kalshi.
