Pick
I’m backing the Mets here. I just have no faith in Ross Stripling at the moment as he looks like a shell of the pitcher that had a career year for the Blue Jays last season. Tylor Megill isn’t my favorite pitcher to back, but I just trust the Mets more in this spot and the Giants, despite a win on Saturday, are still far too inconsistent for me to back in this one. Give me the Mets on the road here.
