The New York Mets have scored only five runs through their first five games of the season, but I think they'll be involved in a high-scoring contest here when visiting Boston Monday night.

The Red Sox have been swinging hot bats but have opened the season by splitting a four-game set with Baltimore. Boston scored a total of 24 runs through the series but gave up a fair amount of runs as well. Yesterday's starter Ryan Weber lasted only 3 2/3 innings, which could mean a depleted bullpen.

As for tonight's pitching matchup, Mets' righty Michael Wacha (2019: 6-7, 4.76 ERA) is regressing and Boston left-hander Josh Osich will make his first career start. Osich is expected put in just a couple of innings, to be followed by right-hander Zack Godley who posted a 5.97 ERA in 2019.
