Atlanta Braves vs New York Mets Prediction
I’m not running to the window to back the Braves, but backing the Mets just isn’t an option. The Mets have won one game since July 28. It’s a disaster in New York right now. Holmes has held his own this season with a 3.46 ERA, but the Mets keep finding ways to lose games these days. Strider has also been hard to hit on the road, where he has a .218 allowed batting average in 36.2 innings. The Mets are the better team, but they haven’t played like it lately. Give me the Braves.
