#907/908 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Over 8.5 Runs – San Francisco Giants @ New York Mets, Wednesday at 7:10 PM ET – Taijuan Walker starts for the Mets in this one. The New York right-hander has struggled badly since the mid-summer Classic. Post-All Star break Walker has made 7 starts and he is 0-5 with a 7.49 ERA. Now he faces a Giants team with a .439 slugging percentage this season - tops in the National League. The Giants starter here is Johnny Cueto. He is coming back from an injury and could show some rust in this start. Cueto is 1-3 with a 4.93 ERA on the road this season. Opponents are hitting .309 against him in those 9 road starts. Cueto also has been much worse in night games than day games. Under the lights the Giants right-hander is 2-3 with a 4.78 ERA and opponents hitting .301 against him this season. The Mets got drilled 8-0 by San Francisco yesterday but should bounce back against Cueto. New York entered this series having scored 4 or more runs in 5 of last 6 home games. Expect a bounce back here for the NY lineup and look for the Giants to continue their strong success at the plate. This total is in the 8.5 range and our computer math model shows this one getting into double digits in runs scored with each club enjoying success at the plate and having a solid shot of getting to 5 runs apiece which, of course, would mean at least 11 runs (6-5 final at a minimum) in this one.
