New York Mets vs Miami Marlins Prediction
Miami has been one of the worst teams in the MLB so far this season, but they have won three of their last four games and they are looking for a nice series win here. The Marlins are 20-32 at home, while the Mets are 24-22 on the road. New York has really turned things around after a rough start to the season, but they are staring at a bad series loss if they don’t win this game. New York is starting Peterson, who has allowed some baserunners, but has done a very nice job of limiting runs. Miami is going with Chirinos, who has not pitched very well in limited work. I expect the New York offense to get to Chirinos here, so my New York Mets vs Miami Marlins prediction is for the Mets to win by at least two runs.
