AAA'S AFTERNOON WINNER >> 14-7-1 L5 DAYS!
(MLB) Miami vs. NY Mets,
Money Line: -165.00 NY Mets (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* on NY METS (GAME 1)

NL East rivals Miami and New York are resigned to “playing out the string” at this point. For the Marlins, they’ve known this fate for some time. They’ve spent the majority of the season in last place and carry a 64-91 record into this series with a five-game losing streak. Over the weekend, they were swept by Sunshine State rival Tampa Bay. The Mets are also on a five-game losing streak. For them, the last two months have been a nightmare as they’ve fallen from first place in the division to 73-82 overall. They were swept over the weekend in Milwaukee. Somebody is going to snap their five-game losing streak in the first game of today’s doubleheader and we believe it will be the Mets. They are at home where their pitching staff allows only 3.6 runs/game and a .220 batting average. Marcus Stroman will start this first game. He has a 2.13 in three career starts against Miami. The Marlins only score 3.8 runs/game on the road. So look for their struggles at the plate to continue. They put up only five runs total in the three games at Tampa Bay. Trevor Rogers has not won a decision for them since June 10th. That was a long time ago. He’s 0-5 in his last 11 starts and has seen a drastic rise in his ERA and WHIP. Play on NY METS (GAME 1)
