Mets at Diamondbacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Diamondbacks 6, Mets 3

Moneyline

The Mets have won the 1st 2 games of the series, but I’ll back the DIAMONDBACKS (-130) to avoid the sweep on Thursday. Nelson has looked better in recent starts and Carrasco has mightily struggled this season.

Run line/Against the spread

DIAMONDBACKS -1.5 (+145) has solid value at the current odds with Carrasco pitching for the Mets. Arizona has won by multiple runs in each of its last 9 wins.

The Diamondbacks also have the 6th-best ISO (.181) and are tied for the 4th-best wOBA (.335). They also own the 8th-best wRC+ (107) against right-handed pitching this season.

Over/Under

UNDER 10 (-105) is the pick in this game despite 2 inconsistent pitchers taking the mound. The Mets are 5-2-2 to the Under in their last 9 games overall, while the Diamondbacks are 6-1 to the Under in their last 7 overall.

The New York Mets (39-46) play the 2nd game of a 3-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks (50-36) on Wednesday at Chase Field. First pitch is scheduled for 9:40 p.m. ET (MLB Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Mets vs. Diamondbacks odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Mets lead 1-0 after winning the series opener 8-5 on Tuesday

The Mets got home runs from OF Starling Marte, OF Brandon Nimmo, and C Francisco Alvarez in Tuesday’s victory. New York has won 3 consecutive games, but it remains 18 games behind the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves.

While the Diamondbacks lost the series open, it was a positive sign to see OF Corbin Carroll back in the lineup, who hit his 18th homer of the season. Arizona has recorded a 4-6 record in its last 10 contests but is still 2 1/2 games ahead of the Los Angeles Dodgers atop the NL West.

Mets at Diamondbacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Diamondbacks 5, Mets 4

Moneyline

The DIAMONDBACKS (-105) are my bet in Wednesday’s NL showdown despite the Mets winning 3 games in a row. Arizona is 24-21 at home compared to New York owning a 19-27 record on the road this season.

The Mets are also 1-5 in their last 6 games against a left-handed starter.

Run line/Against the spread

DIAMONDBACKS +1.5 (-165) is the play for those that aren’t comfortable taking Arizona to win outright. Senga struggles with walks and that could be costly against a Diamondbacks squad that has the 4th-most steals (83) in baseball.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

UNDER 9.5 (-105) is the lean in this game despite the 1st game of the series hitting the Over. The Mets are 4-1-2 to the Under in their last 7 overall and the Diamondbacks are 5-1 to the Under in their last 6 overall.

Mets at Diamondbacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Mets 5, Diamondbacks 3

Moneyline

BET METS (-115).

Despite the Mets road record, they are 14-12 as an away favorite this season, and the Diamondbacks are just 8-13 as a home underdog. This also feels like a trap game for bettors as the top team in the NL West should be a favorite against the 4th-best team in the NL East. However, the pitching difference is enough to back New York.

While Davies performed well his last time on the mound, he’s given up 6 or more ER in 2 of his last 3 starts, so it is hard to trust him against a high-powered Mets offense. With that in mind, take the METS (-115).

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

The Diamondbacks have been better at home while the Mets have struggled on the road.

Despite the Mets having a pitcher that has been better for most of the season, taking them on the run line doesn’t have much value. Similarly, the Diamondbacks at +1.5 (-165) is far too expensive to play as well.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 9 (+100).

Arizona’s offense has struggled lately, scoring 3 or fewer in 4 of its last 5 games. It is just 39-41-5 O/U this season and has gone Under in 5 straight games.

The Mets are 35-43-6 O/U, so they have been profitable on this side of the total. New York has gone 1-4-2 O/U in its last 7 games. Back the UNDER 9 (+100).

Mets at Diamondbacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Diamondbacks 4, Mets 3

Money line

The Diamondbacks have won at least one game in every series this season. This game seems to give them a good bet, facing Williams in his first start of the year. They have been hitting the ball better, having scored 20 runs in the last three games after only netting 1 run in the previous three.

OF David Peralta has a .313 career average with a homer against Williams.

Castellanos pitched well in his last outing and Arizona has been getting good outings out of their starters.

Take DIAMONDBACKS (+125).

Run line/Against the spread

The Diamondbacks have been the underdog in every game they have played this season. They have covered the spread in four straight games and are 7-3 ATS in their last 10.

The Mets are 10-5 ATS this season overall and 2-2 ATS against the Diamondbacks.

However, expecting this game to be the one in which Arizona sneaks a win, take the DIAMONDBACKS +1.5 (-130).

Over/Under

Half of the Mets’ games this season have finished with totals of 9 runs or more.

Only four games for Arizona have had 9 or more runs. Four of Arizona’s five wins have had totals of 7 or fewer runs.

Take UNDER 9.5 (-115).

The last four games for the Diamondbacks went Over the total and they are 28-26-1 O/U this season. Having the highest ERA in the league, you can count on at least 5 runs for their opponent. They allowed 5 or more runs in eight of their last 10 games.

The Mets had their last three games go Over. They are 19-23-2 O/U this season. They scored fewer than 5 runs in six of their last eight games, but facing a bad pitching team like Arizona, take OVER 8.5 (-115).
