This is an 8* play on the METS

Since winning each of the first five meetings this year, the Mets have seemingly forgotten how to beat the Marlins. They've now LOST four straight times to the only team in the division that's below them. All four losses have been here in Miami. There was a three-game sweep back in May, then an 8-4 loss last night. Fortunately for the Mets though, they'll send Noah Syndergaard out on Saturday and he should be able to reverse this trend of losing to the Marlins. Syndergaard is 6-1 with a 1.72 ERA vs. Miami in his career, pitching 62 innings. He did take the loss back in May, but allowed only two runs and five hits in seven innings. The problem was the Mets didn't score (lost 3-0) as Miami's Sandy Alcantara tossed a complete game shutout. We strongly doubt that today's starter, Zac Gallen, will deliver a similar performance. This is just the 4th start for Gallen, who has yet to go longer than five innings. The Mets have won Syndergaard's last four starts despite him not really being at his best. Against a team he usually dominates, we should get the best Syndergaard has to offer here. Play on METS
