New York Mets vs Boston Red Sox Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 9/4/24, 3:24 PM  by Carlos Zabala in MLB Picks

The Mets and Red Sox will have to make one last effort to avoid missing the playoffs in September. Although both teams are going through different times, the Red Sox have been caught in a losing streak of 4 consecutive games where, since Skubal pitched against them, their hitting has turned off untimely, which has resulted in a streak of 4 games lost where they have only scored 12 runs in the last 6 games. They have already lost the first two of the series against the Mets and salvaging a victory is key for Cora in the last game.

The Red Sox have lost 4 of Houck's last 5 games, but the last one was also the last victory for the Red Sox where he looked like the dominant version of the first part of the season. He pitched 6.0 shutouts and struck out 6.

Regarding the Red Sox's sudden offensive blackout, Cora declared, "This is a good offensive club that is going through a bad stretch right now."

The Mets are going through a completely opposite reality to the Red Sox, they have won their last 6 games and covered the Run Line in 5.
