(MLB) NY Mets vs. Chi Cubs, 07/19/2016 3:05 PM, Score: 2 - 1
Money Line: 140.00 NY Mets (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* TOP DOG on the New York Mets.

We think Noah Syndergaard can duel his counterpart Jake Arrieta into the latter frames, making the value on the underdog just too good to turn down in this matchup. The Mets will be especially motivated today as well after dropping yesterday's contest 4-1. Syndergaard (9-4, 2.56 ERA) comes into the second half energized: "It feels like I have a new arm," he'd remark after throwing from 90 feet on Friday after suffering fatigue in his previous start. The hard-throwing right-hander has to be feeling pretty confident today as he's 5-3 with a 2.68 ERA in all "night" games this season. The home side counters with ace Jake Arrieta (12-4, 2.68) who has shown considerable "cracks in the armor" over the last month and a half. In fact, over his last three starts Arrieta has struggled with control and when he faced the Mets on July 2nd, he'd get rocked for four earned runs over 5.1 innings of work. We think Arrieta's issues continue here and a resurgent Syndergaard helps his team back into the winners circle. Play on the METS.
