New York Mets vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction
Luis Severino has had his issues on the road this season, but it probably doesn’t matter. The New York Mets have caught fire over the last month, and they’re not a team I’m trying to step in front of as they chase down a wild card spot. Of course the Philadelphia Phillies and cheap prices are worth a look given how they’ve played all year, but Kolby Allard is an inexperienced pitcher who has a forgettable 4 innings at Citizens Bank Park. The Mets are just too hot to fade as long as the price is reasonable. That’s the case here. Give me the Mets.
