Trends
Miami is 2-7 in their last 9 Sunday games and 11-31 in their last 42 games against the NL East. The under is 3-0-1 in Miami’s last 4 Sunday games. New York is 9-4 in their last 13 Sunday games and 46-21 in their last 67 home games. The over is 4-1-1 in New York’s last 6 game three’s of a series. Miami is 8-21 in these two teams last 29 head to head meetings.
Pick
New York comes into this matchup looking for the sweep and is already 5-1 against the Marlins this season. Miami has struggled offensively in recent games, scoring more than three runs in only one of their last six games. Neither pitcher found much success in their first outing of the year, but I trust Carrasco and the Mets a lot more than the Marlins right now. Take the Mets here.
