Prediction published on 6/17/24, 7:50 PM  by Carlos Zabala | Modified on 6/18/24 at 1:51 AM in MLB Picks

The current champion, Rangers, has a low winning average as favorites. just 53.7%, yesterday they lost again as favorites against the Mets with a final odds of -135. They were absolutely beaten with 14 runs and 22 hits by the Mets. The pitching in general, but especially the Rangers relief, is very surprising in 2024 but in a bad way. The Bullpen has a 4.74 ERA, being the worst after the White Sox, Rockies and Angels and they have given up the scandalous figure of 129 BB.

The Mets go up while the Rangers go down, the Mets had not given up 22 hits since 2019 and Lindor went 4 for 4 in an unusually excellent game at bat. They swept the Marlins, Padres and want to do the same against another team below 500 baseball. "We've just got to continue to ride as long as we can" Lindor said about the Mets' streak. They are already just 1 game away from the last wild card in a pitched battle between 9 teams. In the Mets' last 10 games, a bet on them of $100 each game would have returned $526. Mets are 6-3 in games 2 of series after winning.
