Mets vs Braves Prediction

Our prediction for the Mets vs. Braves game is to take the over at 9.5 runs. We have the Braves winning this one by a score of 6-4, which gives us plenty of room on the over/under line.

Looking at the starting pitchers, we do have Jose Quintana’s chances of picking up a win as the third best among starters today. However, we have him going just five innings, and his strikeout numbers are also not great.

Offensively, the Braves are our top team in terms of projected runs and also home runs. As for the Mets, they are actually one of the teams we have with the fewest runs today and have them finishing with just seven team strikeouts.

With the money line, the Braves are paying out at -167, and while we do have them winning, we prefer the over.
