Our Tampa Bay Rays vs New York Mets Prediction
Key Stats: Out of the Rays’ last 6 victories over the Mets, Tampa Bay has won by two or more points 5 times.
Tampa Bay is averaging 7.0 runs per game against right-handed pitchers over the last five games. New York is averaging 1.9 runs per game against left-handed pitchers over the last five games.
What to Expect: The Rays demolish the Mets, extending their head-to-head winning streak to seven games. Tampa Bay has too many weapons on the mound and at the plate. On the other hand, the Mets have been hampered by bad pitching and anemic offense all season long. This is a mismatch.
Fearless Forecast: The Rays 7, the Mets 2
Our betting prediction for the Tampa Bay Rays vs. the New York Mets: The Rays -1.5 Runs
