St. Louis Cardinals vs New York Mets Prediction
While it’s just 36 innings, Scott has been fantastic with a 2.50 ERA and 1.31 WHIP. The problem is it’s the Mets, one of the most disappointing and untrustworthy teams in baseball. I don’t want to back the Mets as a favorite. The Cardinals are having a strong week, and they’ve done some good things on the road. Pallante has also been solid this year through 63.2 innings with a 3.96 ERA and 1.30 WHIP. In 27 road innings, Pallante has a 2.67 ERA and a .175 batting average allowed. I’ll grab the plus money with the Cards on the road.
