Dodgers vs Mets Prediction
Holmes has been strong through 18 innings and we know the Mets are better than what they’ve shown up to this point. However, at some point the Mets need to show it. We can’t keep saying the Mets are better than this while they keep burning a hole in the pocket.
The Mets have scored 2 or fewer runs in 6 of their last 7 games. I and eight of your friends could probably string together more offense than that. I also keep saying I’m trying to find spots to fade the Dodgers and these inflated prices but they keep winning and keep running into these teams on the struggle bus. That doesn’t change here. Give me the Dodgers and I’ll take the RL to shave down the price.
