Athletics vs Mets Prediction 

The A’s were able to pickup a nice win on Saturday in game two of this series and they will go for the series win here. The Mets are 4-4 on the road this year, while the Athletics are 2-6 at home. New York has scored one run or fewer in two of their last three games and they are just 21st in the MLB in runs scored so far this year. I think the Mets will have a bounce back performance in this game, as Severino has allowed five earned runs in each of his last two starts, while Senga should be fine against this Athletics lineup. Take New York here.
