Milwaukee Brewers vs New York Mets Prediction

This pitching matchup doesn’t do much for me, but I’m going to lean toward the Mets because they’re too talented of a team to continue these losses. Maybe a win yesterday was the turning point. Quintana has had a strong season, but I’m not bought in the 36-year-old just yet, and he has allowed 27 hits and 12 earned runs in his last 26 innings. Peterson has been rough in his last three starts, but he has a 2.22 ERA and .239 allowed batting average in 48.2 home innings. Even with recent struggles, Peterson has a 3.30 ERA and 1.28 WHIP on the season. Give me the Mets.
