Washington Nationals vs New York Mets Prediction
The Nats are having a rough week where the offense isn’t showing up, so while Gore has been great this season, it doesn’t matter if the team can’t string together offense. Gore has allowed zero runs in his last 13 innings and is second in strikeouts. The Mets continue to play like one of the best teams in the league, and Canning is coming off six scoreless innings against the Dodgers. Canning looks like an all-star with his 2.90 ERA and 1.32 WHIP. I understand getting Gore at plus money, but I still have to side with the Mets.
