#MLB Free Pick from Mike Lundin
(MLB) Washington vs. NY Mets,
Money Line: 152.00 Washington (Away)
Result: Win
Money Line: 152.00 Washington (Away)
Result: Win
Play: Washington Nationals
Rating: 5*
The Washington Nationals are coming off a three-game sweep at Philadelphia and they're a solid 40-29 on the road this season. They enter Friday's meeting with the New York Mets at Citi Field as a sizable underdog, and this looks like a great price on the Nats.
A.J. Cole (0-1, 4.97 ERA) takes the ball for the visitors. While inexperienced, I think the 24 year old will give the Nats a chance to win this game and he'll be backed up by the second best bullpen in baseball (3.33 ERA) which will come in well rested as the team got Thursday off. It will also help that the Mets are far from an offensive juggernaut with a miserable .243 batting average, the third worst mark in the major leagues.
The Mets turn to Noah Syndergaard (12-7, 2.55 ERA) who has won three straight decisions. He's just 1-2 with a 4.91 ERA in three meetings with the Nats this season though, and he's struggled big time with Anthony Rendon who is 5-for-13 in previous meetings. We can also note that Nationals are 6-0 in their last six games vs. a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15 so they're prone to raise their game when facing an ace.
Nationals are 38-13 in the last 51 meetings in New York and they'll face a Mets team that lost 6-4 to the Marlins last night.
Note that:
- Friday is the perfect day to pick up a 3-Day All Access Pass of Mike Lundin's Premium Picks. The action starts tonight with College Football and MLB action, among the picks you'll find an 8*-rated *DOG OF THE DAY* and a Top Rated 10* MLB *BIG HITTER*. Mike's on a 32-19 (63%) RUN W/ TOP RATED MLB, so this is a pick you don't want to miss!
