Only the combative Diamondbacks have been able to win a series against the Mets at Citi Field this season. The Mets lost two close games, 3-4 to close April and 2-4 to open May, and so far have never lost three in a row.

In Queens, teams that were hitting well were abruptly stopped by the Mets' pitching. That happened to the Cardinals, who were swept in their four-game visit to Citi Field, so they'll want to make up for that when they host the Mets in St. Louis for this weekend's series.

The Cardinals played a good doubleheader on Wednesday, but on Thursday they were unable to beat Abbott, the Reds' starter, on a three-hit afternoon against their division rival.

Clay Holmes seems more than accustomed to his role as a starter, and the Mets enjoy having him start games, as the Mets have taken the W in each of his last five starts. He collected his second of 3 W's this season in the Mets' 7-4 win over the Cards on April 20.

Our New York Mets vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction

Sonny Gray will be the Cardinals' starter. He went without a decision in his last start but completed his third straight quality outing, throwing 91 pitches. When the Cardinals played this season at Busch Stadium as betting underdogs, the Game Total UNDER occurred 66.7% of the time. Gray pitched exactly six innings in each of the last three times he faced the Mets. Our prediction for Mets vs Cardinals is: Under 7.5.
