(MLB) NY Mets vs. Miami,
Money Line: -127.00 NY Mets (Away)
Result: Loss
#957 ASA PLAY ON New York Mets -135 over Miami Marlins, Friday at 7:10 PM ET - The Mets Sean Manaea has allowed just 8 earned runs in his last 5 starts! The left-hander is 4-1 in night starts this season plus he is 3-0 with a 2.44 ERA in his 8 road starts this season! Edward Cabrera, on the other hand, is 1-3 in his 7 starts this season and has an 8.26 ERA in these outings! This line is not as high as you might think given these numbers because Cabrera has piled up strikeouts since he returned in July. However, even though his strikeouts were up in those two outings, he continued to struggle and get hit hard and allow too many homers. The Mets are the stronger lineup and had been playing the better baseball prior to the All-Star break so a lot of advantages point their way in this one! New York won 7 of 9 games heading into the All-Star break. Also, the Mets are 24-17 this season against teams with a losing record. The Marlins are 20-41 against teams with a winning record and also are just 18-31 at home this season! This match-up also looks bad for Miami when one considers that they are 6-28 against left-handed starters this year! Yes, just 6 wins in 34 games when facing a left-handed starter. Many indicators, as you can see above, are in favor of the road team at a very fair price in this one! Lay it with the Mets! Take New York!
