Mets vs Dodgers Prediction

I’m on the Dodgers here. The Mets were competitive in Friday’s loss, but they’ve still had issues stringing wins together as of late, and I just don’t trust David Peterson right now against a Dodgers’ lineup that’s smashing left-handed pitching right now. Gonsolin had a tough start against the Angels, but he’s been solid elsewhere, and I think he bounces back to help the Dodgers grab the win here. Give me Los Angeles.
