The Cincinnati Reds will play the New York Mets in Game 3 of their series at Citi Field on Wednesday afternoon.
The Cincinnati Reds are 44-65 this season and have lost four of their last six games. Cincinnati has lost the first two games of this series by scores of 5-1 and 6-2. The Cincinnati pitching staff has a 5.00 ERA, a 1.40 WHIP, and a .252 opponent batting average this season. The Reds offense has scored 464 runs with a .239 batting average and a .308 on base percentage. Joey Votto is batting .215 with 11 home runs and 40 RBI’s for the Reds this season. The projected starter for Cincinnati is T.J. Zeuch, who is making his first appearance for the Reds this season.
The New York Mets are 72-39 this season and have won five games in a row. Prior to winning the first two games of this series, New York won four out of the five games played in their series against Atlanta. The New York pitching staff has a 3.55 ERA, a 1.18 WHIP, and a .234 opponent batting average. The Mets offense has scored 534 runs with a .259 batting average and a .331 on base percentage this year. Pete Alonso is batting .278 with 29 home runs and 95 RBI’s for the Mets this season. The projected starter for New York is Taijuan Walker, who is 9-3 with a 3.45 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP over 104.1 innings pitched this season.
Cincinnati is 6-1 in their last 7 game three’s of a series and 6-20 in their last 26 Wednesday games. The under is 4-0 in Cincinnati’s last 4 game three’s of a series. New York is 4-0 in their last 4 Wednesday games and 20-7 in their last 27 games. The over is 15-5-1 in New York’s last 21 game three’s of a series. Cincinnati is 15-37 in these two teams last 52 head to head meetings.
New York has played well all season and comes into this matchup on a five game winning streak, while Cincinnati has lost four of six and has one of the worst records in baseball. This is not an ideal time for T.J. Zeuch to be making his first appearance of the season with the Reds and I expect the Mets to have a big day here. I am going to take the over in this one.
