(The Spread) – National League East rivals clash tonight in New York when the Mets host the Marlins at 7:10PM ET.
Odds: Oddsmakers have made the host Mets -105 money line favorites versus the visiting Marlins, who are -101 on the ML. The over/under total for tonight’s game is currently listed at 8 runs.
Pitching Matchup: Javier Vazquez will take on Mike Pelfrey in tonight’s pitching matchup. Vazquez has struggled this year while posting a 7-11 record with a 4.63 ERA, and hasn’t won a decision in his last five starts. Pelfrey has also struggled, posting a 7-10 record with a 4.60 ERA, although he did win his last start (a 7-4 victory over the Phillies in which he allowed three runs on nine hits over 6 innings).
Public Betting: Of the 1,200-plus wagers on tonight’s game, 51% of MLB public bettors currently favor the Mets –105.
MLB Free Pick: Take Florida. According to latest MLB trends, the Marlins are 6-2 in their last eight road games against the Mets and 11-5 against New York in their last 16 meetings overall. On the other side, the Mets are just 3-12 in Pelfrey’s last 15 starts versus the Marlins and 1-6 in his last seven home starts against Florida. Neither of these teams have nothing to play for and while the Mets are currently on a four-game winning streak, look for the Marlins to get the best of their division rivals tonight.
