The New York Mets and San Francisco Giants face off on Wednesday in an MLB showdown at Oracle Park. The Mets and Giants had a back and forth game on Tuesday with both teams finding a ton of offensive success. The Mets stormed all the way back, but their bullpen blew the game in the 9th inning.
It doesn’t seem to matter how much the Mets are down, they never give up on games, but on Tuesday their bullpen had some issues and now they have some tired arms heading into this game. The Bullpen blew the game in the 9th inning by giving up two runs. Overall the pitching for the Mets has been strong giving up only 3.52 runs per game so the pitching being so bad on Tuesday was a bit shocking. The Mets have combined to score 25 runs total in the first two games of this series, and still only lost one of the games.
On the other side of this matchup is the GIants who sit with a 23-19 record overall. The Giants had lost five games in a row before they won on Tuesday. The Giants pitching has been an issue as of late, and they can’t keep playing with fire with the pitching being so bad. Wilmer Flores has been the top player for the Giants hitting four home runs and driving in 24 RBIs.
On the mound for the Giants is Jakob Junis who sits with a 1-1 record and an ERA of 2.70. In his last start against the San Diego Padres, he went six innings giving up seven hits and four earned runs.
The Mets are 6-1 in their last seven games during 3 of a series. The over is 6-1 in the GIants last seven games overall. The over is 4-1 in Giants last 5 home games vs. a team with a road winning percentage of greater than .600.
The Mets offense has been good heading into this game, but it’s going to be different in this game. Junis has been good for the most part this season sitting with an ERA of 2.70. I expect with the way the Mets lost the last game, they are going to be sulking, and the Giants will get the job done. Back the Giants.
