New York Mets Betting Preview
The New York Mets enter Wednesday’s contest with a 13–22 overall record (5th in the National League East) and a 7–10 mark on the road. The Mets offense has been inconsistent to this point of the 2026 regular season. The New York Mets have compiled a rather low 122 runs scored (29th in MLB), 47 doubles (27th in MLB), 28 home runs and a .224 batting average which ranks 29th in Major League Baseball.
The Mets arrive at tomorrow’s game in good form. New York has won three of the team’s last four games played this season, including a 5–1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels two days ago.
New York will turn to right‑hander Christian Scott in this contest. In two starts made this season, Scott has compiled a 4.26 ERA, a 1.32 WHIP and 9 strikeouts, while allowing just 3 hits and 5 walks in 6.1 innings pitched. Scott will look build on his recent quality performance in tomorrow’s matchup with the Colorado Rockies.
The New York Mets lineup features outfielder Juan Soto and shortstop Bo Bichette. Juan Soto. enters this contest with a .301 batting average, 3 home runs, 8 RBIs and an .886 OPS. Bo Bichette has compiled 2 home runs, 5 doubles, 8 walks, 15 RBIs, and a .585 OPS giving the Mets a capable offensive core despite the team’s recent offensive struggles.
Colorado Rockies Betting Preview
The Colorado Rockies enter Sunday’s matchup with a 14–22 overall record (5th in the National League West) and a 7–10 mark at home. Colorado has struggled recently, losing six of the team’s last seven games, including a 9–1 loss to the Atlanta Braves earlier this week.
Colorado will start left‑hander Jose Quintana tomorrow night. In six starts made this season, Quintana has compiled a 1–2 record, a 4.07 ERA, a 1.36 WHIP and 12 strikeouts, while allowing 22 hits and 11 walks in 24.1 innings pitched.
The Colorado Rockies have amassed a formidable lineup featuring first baseman TJ Rumfield and catcher Hunter Goodman. TJ Rumfield enters this contest with a .260 batting average, 4 home runs, 11 walks, 19 RBIs and a .732 OPS. Hunter Goodman has compiled a 9 home runs (14th in MLB), 7 doubles, 15 RBIs and an .808 OPS.

New York Mets vs. Colorado Rockies Prediction
In my view, this matchup favors the New York Mets. New York starting pitcher Christian Scott has compiled a 1.32 WHIP and 9 strikeouts, while allowing just 3 hits in 9.1 innings pitched this season. Conversely, Colorado starting pitcher Jose Quintana has been inconsistent in 2026. Additionally, the Mets arrive at this contest in rather good form winning two consecutive games, while the Colorado Rockies have lost six of the team’s last seven games played. For the reasons just noted, I am backing the New York Mets on the moneyline in this game.
