MLB Best Bet: Braves vs Mets Game 2
(MLB) Atlanta vs. NY Mets,
Total: 8.00 | -115.00 Over
Result: Loss
I like the over in Game 2 of the doubleheader between the Braves and Mets. I expect both bullpens to see a lot of action in the earlier game, and that will help both offenses in the night cap.
Spencer Strider has a career 7.23 ERA against the Mets, with a 12.00 ERA against them this season. Strider has not been in great form lately either as the Braves have allowed at least five runs in four of his last five starts.
Jose Quintana has been solid for the Mets but will be facing a Braves team that leads all of MLB in isolated power against LHP this season. The Braves have also scored at least five runs in nine of their last 10 games.
Expect Quintana and Strider to start, but take the over in the second game of the doubleheader even if that changes.
