NY Mets vs Miami Marlins Prediction
The Mets are going to find success in this game. I don’t trust the Marlins offense especially against Severino who has been a bright spot for the Mets. Severino in his last start gave up only one run and he’s going to lockdown in this game. The Marlins are going to struggle to score even two runs, and this is going to be an easy victory for the Mets. Back the Mets on the run line to cash.
