Mets vs Angels Prediction
I’m on the Angels here. It’s not a game I’m rushing to the window to bet necessarily, but I think that the Mets’ bullpen could let them down once again, just like it did in Manaea’s return to the rotation in his last start. The Angels are far from world-beaters, but I think it’s where the value is in this matchup, so give me the Halos in this one.
