Giants vs Mets Prediction
You can make a case for the Giants with Ray on the mound, as he’s been dealing with a 2.92 ERA and 1.13 WHIP. The problem is the Giants are heading in the wrong direction and the offense has been riding the struggle bus. The Mets have found their form with five straight wins, and they’re tough to bet against when they get rolling. Peterson has allowed two earned runs in his last 19.2 innings. The Mets are back and we’re getting a cheap price. I’m riding the hot hand with the Mets.
