New York Mets at Miami Marlins Prediction – June 24
This is a tight matchup with both teams seeing the opposing starting pitcher for the second time in a week. During their last series, Walker was great against Miami in his start and Alcantara shut down the Mets in his.
I would lean toward the under for this matchup since both pitchers are very solid despite the fact that each offense has seen the other pitcher before.
I have a 5% MLB Play of the Week on Sportsmemo and I am 7-0 on the season for $3,500 in profit on 5% plays – take a look at Sportsmemo.
