Washington Nationals vs New York Mets Prediction

I’ll stick with the Mets. Severino has been a little shaky over his last handful of starts, but this is a good opportunity to get back on track. In two of his last three outings, Severino has given up nine earned in 12.0 innings total. In the other start he’s got just one earned in 7.0 frames. As for Corbin, he’s been okay with five earned in his last 12.0 innings but he’s 0-1 in that time.

On Tuesday the Mets had a couple of big innings to put the game essentially out of reach. The offense was great; four different players had multiple hits. Another good effort like that on Wednesday and New York will be sitting pretty.
