Analysis
The Philadelphia Phillies will open their 2025 MLB season against the Washington Nationals on Thursday, March 27, at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. First pitch is scheduled for 4:05 PM ET. Philadelphia Phillies: Zack Wheeler looks to start. Wheeler was 16-7 last year with a 2.57 ERA, 0.96 WHIP over 200 innings. Notably effective against the Nationals last season, posting a 2-0 record with a 2.29 ERA in 19 innings. Washington Nationals: MacKenzie Gore will take the ball on opening day. He was 10-12 last year with a 3.90 ERA, 1.42 WHIP over 166.1 innings. Faced challenges against the Phillies previously, with a 4.96 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 45.1 career innings. Phillies have the stronger lineup and better starters. I'm taking Philly in the 1st 5 Innings.
