Miami Marlins vs New York Mets Prediction
I'm not thrilled to lay this price with the New York Mets or the RL, but what choice do we have? The Miami Marlins aren't a good baseball team, and Roddery Munoz has been rough in limited action. A Mets lineup that's consistently shown up this week should have a field day against Munoz. Luis Severino has also been good this season and even better at home where he has an ERA under 3. On paper, the Mets should win this game, and they simply can't afford to blow it if they want to stay in the wild card race. Give me the Mets and the RL for max betting value.
