The Mets are one of the best scoring teams in the Majors from the seventh inning on. In fact, the Mets are second in 8th inning runs with over 1 per game while they are third with .6 runs in the ninth. Look for the Mets to get a win here and avoid the sweep!
The fact that the Cardinals are hitting 25 points lower against lefties this season while hitting just 3 of their 18 homers shifts the weight to the Mets side. Additionally, the Mets have hit 19 of their 27 jacks against right handers and Lynn is known to serve them up as he hasn't been his old self. The Mets are the play here this afternoon.
