The freefall has paused a bit for the Red Sox as they have run their record to 2-4 after a 6-5 win at Citi Field on Wednesday. Boston will look a series split on Thursday vs. Steven Matz.
The Mets let one get away on Wednesday in a Jacob deGrom start, doomed in by a 3-run 8th inning for the Red Sox. New York will try to build on their 7-4 and 8-3 wins to begin this series.
Boston Red Sox
Boston found just enough pitching on Wednesday to squeeze out the 6-5 win. The Red Sox are actually 6th in the league in runs scored – but also have the 3rd worst ERA in all of baseball.
The Red Sox will aim for a quality outing from starter Martin Perez. That doesn’t seem likely as he was rocked for 4 ER in 5.0 IP in his Boston debut.
Boston has scored at least 3 runs in 5 of 6 games this season which would make Thursday’s ‘over’ 9 look good. Kevin Pillar is the only Red Sox batter to have faced Mets starter Steven Matz, however.
New York Mets
The Mets will try to regroup in game four of the series after losing in a Jacob deGrom start on Wednesday. deGrom only allowed 3 hits, but he did give up 2 ER in 6.0 IP.
Now it’s Matz’ turn to try and silence Boston. The left-hander was sharp in his debut last week, giving up just 2 hits and 1 ER in shutting down Atlanta.
Mets bats did heat up late in Wednesday’s game with 4 runs in the 5th inning or later but they’ll aim for a faster start on Thursday. New York has just a .222 team BA vs. Perez, but the Red Sox starter is on an obvious decline.
MLB Baseball Betting Trends:
- Red Sox are 63-27 last 90 interleague games
- Under is 6-2 in Mets last 8 as a favorite
Free Boston Red Sox vs. New York Mets MLB Prediction:
The Mets are going to get to Perez in this one and although it will be tough for Matz to duplicate his season openign performance, he should have plenty of run support.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Mets -1.5 (+120)
New York has too much power potential in that lineup.
