***10*** GAME OF WEEK (OFF 3-0 SWEEP!)
(MLB) NY Mets vs. Washington,
Money Line: -151.00 NY Mets (Away)
Result: Win
I will "tread lightly" this MLB season over the first 2 weeks. I like to get a "feel" for each team first, and to properly do that, you need to see at least one turn through the rotation. For most teams, that's about the first two weeks. So until then, as I say, I'll be picking and choosing my spots. This is a good spot bet in my opinion. I don't mind laying chalk. ESPECIALLY when I believe that a team should in fact be an even larger fav! Max Scherzer faces his former team today with his new team today and I say the veteran ace brings his "A" game to the Nation's capital. Scherzer is 37-26 with a 2.99 ERA in 96 starts at Nationals Park. Josiah Gray gets the call for the home side. He averaged more than four walks per nine innings last year. Let's lay this price and expect a rout. 10* GOW Mets.
