New York Mets vs San Francisco Giants prediction
You can make a case for either side. Luis Severino has found his magic recently, and that includes allowing 2 earned runs in his last 16 innings while striking out 15. Logan Webb has allowed 8 runs in his last 24.2 innings, and that includes a 7 inning shutout against the Diamondbacks. This is one of the better pitching matchups of the week. With that said, Severino still has to prove himself on a larger sample size given recent seasons of struggle. Webb also usually dominates at Oracle Park. I’ll lay the cheap price with the Giants at home. Still, a must-watch matchup for MLB fans.
