The New York Mets and Milwaukee Brewers face off on Monday in an MLB showdown at American Family Field.
The Mets come into this game with a 93-55 record overall and they have won four games in a row. Over the last four games the Mets have given up only eight runs total, and in this game they are going to need to have strong pitching again. The Mets pitching overall is giving up only 3.71 runs per game which is 4th best in the league. Pete Alonso has hit 35 home runs and driven in 115 RBIs.
On the other side of this matchup is the Brewers who sit with a 78-68 record overall but they are coming off a loss on Sunday. The pitching really struggled giving up 12 runs to the New York Yankees and that led to the defeat. The Brewers are averaging 4.52 runs per game which is 9th in baseball. Rowdy Tellez has hit 31 home runs and driven in 83 RBIs so far this season.
On the mound for the Mets is Max Scherzer who sits with a 9-4 record and an ERA of 2.26. In his last start against Washington, he went five innings giving up three hits and one run. The Mets need Scherzer to be good again.
On the mound for the Brewers is Corbin Burnes who sits with a 10-7 record and an ERA of 2.97. In his last start against the St. Louis Cardinals he went seven innings giving up seven hits and three runs.
The Mets are 1-4 in Scherzer’s last five starts. The over is 4-0 in the Mets last four road games. The over is 6-1 in Mets last 7 when their opponent allows 5 runs or more in their previous game.
Runs are going to be very hard to come by in this game. Burnes sits with an ERA of 2.97 and Scherzer sits with an ERA of 2.26. Both starting pitchers are going to lockdown in this game, and that is going to lead to this game staying well under the total. Back the under to cash here with ease.
