Rockies vs Mets Prediction

It would be nice to know who the Mets are throwing out on the mound, but who cares. The Mets continue to underachieve and lose bettors money. You shouldn’t be backing this team. The Rockies are at home and have played above their level up to this point. Sugano has also pitched solidly through 31.2 innings with a 2.84 ERA and 1.17 WHIP. We’re getting plus money to fade the Mets. I’ll take it.
