In this article, we will formulate a Mets vs Rockies Prediction for this MLB game on Saturday, May 31st, at Progressive Field. Let’s take a look at a New York Mets vs Colorado Rockies Prediction.
Rockies Continue to be Awful
The Rockies really need an entire system overhaul, it feels like that is the only thing that is going to fix this, because they are flat out awful. On Friday, the Rockies scored two runs, and that wasn’t enough as they ended up losing by two runs. Kyle Freeland actually had one of his best starts of the season but it still wasn’t good enough as he went six innings giving up seven hits and three runs.
The Rockies are averaging 3.16 runs while their pitching is giving up 6.28 runs per game. They struggle with the pitching, and their offense is even worse. For a team that plays at Coors Field it’s shocking how hard this team struggles to score runs. As a team they are batting only .218 which is last in baseball. Antonio Senzatela sits with a 1-9 record and an ERA of 6.50. Against the New York Yankees in his last he went 4.1 innings giving up six hits and four runs.
Mets Can’t Slip Up
The Mets believe they are a title contender and a title contender doesn’t slip up in these type of games. On Friday the bullpen did give a little bit back to the Rockies but it still was a pretty comfortable win. Francisco Lindor had a strong game hitting two home runs and driving in two RBIs. David Peterson went 5.2 innings giving up five hits and one run and it’s going to be another strong start here.
The Mets are averaging 4.39 runs while their pitching is giving up 3.32 runs per game. The ofense is ranked 12th while the pitching is ranked 1st. They do have a positive run differential which is 5th in the league. Getting the start for the Mets will be Kodai Senga who sits with a 5-3 record and has an ERA of 1.46. In his last start against the LA Dodgers he went 5.1 innings giving up five hits and one run.
Mets vs Rockies Prediction
This game is going ot be a blowout victory and you can’t lay unlimited runs with the Mets, but we can get close to that here. We have an elite picture with Senga on the mound and he gave up only one run in his last start. Senzatela gave up four runs in his last start and he sits with an ERA of 6.50. This game is going to be a blowout and I don’t even see the Rockies having a run pass the plate here. Will the Mets score five? They will cover the 4.5 runs. Will they score eight? They will cover the 7.5 runs. We will play it a little safe and back the Mets -3.5 to cash. Don’t be afraid to sprinkle some on higher numbers for more value though.
