Miami Marlins
The Marlins have been a weird team during the 2022 season. It does appear as if they are playing a little bit better, but they still are not where they would want to be.
A big problem for this squad so far has been their lack of consistent play. They have shown the ability to play well in bunches, but it simply has not happened enough and it has really cost them.
Given how tough the NL East is, it makes sense that the teams who are the most steady are the ones at the top. If Miami does not really turn things around, it is hard to imagine them gaining all that much ground.
New York is currently 1st in the division and they lead this group by 13 games. Unless they have an epic collapse, it is very unreasonable to expect the Fish to catch them at the top.
Right now, the word postseason should not even be in the minds of this ball club. They need to figure out how to string together multiple wins in a row and keep on winning their series. If they do not do that, then there really is not a ton of hope for them.
After dropping the first two to the Mets, they did get the victory on Sunday by a score of 6-2. They did not seem to have a ton of offense going in that one, but it changed when Jerar Encarnacion hit a grand slam to really put the game away.
In the victory on Sunday, Sandy Alcantara once again delivered a strong outing and he gave his team great length. The right-hander finished the day going 8 innings while allowing 2 runs and punching out 8 batters. This guy has been something truly special and if he keeps it up, he will win the Cy Young.
Trevor Rogers has been a guy they could count on for the last couple of seasons, but he simply has not been the guy they thought he was going to be. The left-hander is 3-5 with an ERA near 6. He will have his hands full when tries to keep this Mets lineup in check.
New York Mets
The Mets have been an impressive team all season long and they really are one the best in the sport right now.
All season long, it has been clear there is a different energy and vibe with this team and it is showing in the wins and losses. Not only are they acting like a different team, but they are playing like one.
For the first time in a long time, fans are excited about their baseball team and they feel like they have a chance to go far. When you have the right person owning the team and the right person managing the team to go along with very talented players, those are the things people should expect.
Earlier in the season, New York was really able to gain some good separation between themselves and everyone else in the division. Now, that is no longer entirely the case with the Braves playing much better and not being too far behind them.
Coming into play, Atlanta trails this club by 5.5 games. Every Met fan has to have in their head what happened a season ago and hope that does not repeat once again this season.
These guys can keep winning regular-season games without some of their top guys, but they are eventually going to need deGrom and Scherzer back out there. For as good as some of the other pitchers have been, this team is not going far if both of those guys are not on the field.
Chris Bassitt was able to put forth a solid outing on Sunday, but the bullpen was not able to do its job. For as good as the Mets have been, the pen has been shaky more than once and it has cost them in some key spots.
New York will be turning to David Peterson in this one and despite not having a ton of starts this season, he has been effective. Right now, he holds a record of 3-1 and an ERA of 3.60.

Miami Marlins vs. New York Mets MLB Prediction:
After pulling out a nice win on Sunday, Miami has to earn this split here. It would be a bad look to drop 3 of 4, even though New York is a much more complete club.
This Monday tilt is certainly not going to be easy for the Fish, but I do feel they can be competitive. Compared to other spots, I do not love the Mets here.
I know Rogers has not been great this season, but he has still shown the ability to be an effective pitcher in his short career. He might not be terrific here, but I do feel he can do enough to at least keep his team in it.
It would not shock me if the Mets won, but the runs are too many for me to lay. Give me Miami at 1.5.
