Mets at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Mets 5, Yankees 4

Moneyline

The Mets have underplayed their talent so far. They’ve scored 4.47 runs per game while allowing 4.58: look for both figures to improve in the second half.

The mound match-up is plenty questionable on both sides, but the Yankees  bullpen figures as one due some regression and Rodon has just been way off so far.

The price here is solid: BACK THE METS (+128).

Run line/Against the spread

This is also a solid price on the visiting nine. Some bettors may want to spread the risk across 2 plays — the ML action above and METS +1.5 (-164).

Over/Under

Since July 3, games at Yankee Stadium have seen the Over go 7-2-2.

With some fade against the Yankee bullpen, and on a warm night in the Bronx, BACK THE OVER 8.5 (-115).

The New York Mets (46-53) and New York Yankees (53-47) meet Tuesday for the front end of a 2-game Subway Series in the Bronx. First pitch at Yankee Stadium is slated for 7:05 p.m. ET (TBS). Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Mets vs. Yankees odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Tied 1-1

The Mets dropped 2 of 3 to the Red Sox in a weekend series at Fenway Park. They have slashed a subpar .188/.276/.321 in going 4-7 over their last 11 games.

The Yankees are coming off a 3-game sweep of the Kansas City Royals. But New York’s American League entry has also struggled on offense in the recent past. From July 5-19, the Yanks went 2-9 with a .630 OPS.

Both teams were idle on Monday.

Mets at Yankees projected starters

RHP Justin Verlander vs. RHP Domingo German

Verlander (4-5, 3.47 ERA) makes his 15th start. He has registered a 1.16 WHIP, 2.8 BB/9 and 7.6 K/9 in 83 innings.

  • Owns a 2.25 ERA over his last 7 starts
  • ERA is his would-be single-season highest since 2014 (4.54)
  • Has registered a 6.84 ERA over his last 4 road starts
  • Owns a 2.48 ERA over his last 5 starts against New York (2018-23)

  • Has had some clunkers over the last month, but does own a solid 3.47 ERA in his last 33 2/3 IP at home
  • Current-roster Mets batters own an aggregate .797 OPS against him

Mets at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Mets 5, Yankees 4

Moneyline

The Mets have underplayed their talent so far and figure to be a moderate play in a lot of games in the near future. But peg Verlander as being too far over his skis with his good recent numbers. Over his last 9 starts, the veteran righty has benefited from a .267 batting average on balls in play, 77.1% left-on-base rate, and 7% home runs/fly balls rate.

Cross signals make for a PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

Same as above; no interest in forcing something here. AVOID.

Over/Under

The Yanks got their offense cranked up over the weekend, scoring 18 runs over 3 games. Since July 3, games at Yankee Stadium have seen the Over go 6-2-2.

With some fade lean working against Verlander and the Yankee bullpen, and with German being the frequent sufferer of bouts of gopher-itis, BACK THE OVER 8.5 (-115).

Mets at Yankees projected starters

RHP Taijuan Walker vs. RHP Frankie Montas

Walker (10-3, 3.36 ERA) is making his 22nd start of the 2022 season. He has a 1.20 WHIP, 2.6 BB/9 and 6.8 K/9 through 112 1/3 IP.

  • Current Yankee bats own an aggregate .806 OPS against him
  • Owns a 4.54 ERA over his last 7 starts

Montas (4-10, 3.87 ERA) has logged a 1.21 WHIP, 2.6 BB/9 and 8.9 K/9 through 118 2/3 IP across 22 starts.

  • Has struggled after being acquired from the Oakland Athletics at the trade deadline: has allowed 14 ER in 14 IP with the Yankees
  • Has done well to hold hard contact in check of late but has been burned by a .333 batting average on balls in play over his last 4 starts

Mets at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Yankees 6, Mets 4

Money line

With some generous rates around the margins, Walker is toting around an ERA significantly lower than his expected ERA.

With the Yankees gaining a dash of momentum the last 2 days, they are the lean here.

Take the Yanks at -125 or better. PASS if the price is higher.

Run line/Against the spread

BACK THE YANKEES -1.5 (+155). Look for a game effort from Montas, and with it shading a higher total, the price is right on getting the home side by with a multi-run cushion.

Over/Under

These Big Apple foes have combined for at least 9 total runs in 8 of their last 10 meetings. The Yankee bullpen is not in great shape, and the weather forecast calls for a light batter’s breeze blowing out to left-center.

Consider a partial-unit play on the OVER 8.5 (-115).

New York Mets at New York Yankees odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s New York Mets at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB expert picks and predictions.

The New York Mets (79-44) and New York Yankees (74-48) tangle in 2 games this week at Yankee Stadium with Monday’s 1st pitch at 7:05 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Mets vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.

Season series: Mets lead 2-0

The Mets are 4-4 on a road trip that has thus far had visits to the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies. New York pitching has been strong of late;  the Mets are 11-5 with a 3.32 ERA over their last 16 games.

The Yankees have been an opponent pitching staff’s dream over recent weeks. New York’s AL entry has been shut out 5 times since Aug. 3. Over that stretch, the Yankees have gone just 4-13 while scoring 2.88 runs per game on a .595 OPS.

RHP Max Scherzer vs. RHP Domingo German

Scherzer (9-2, 2.15 ERA) has made 17 starts this season. He owns a 0.93 WHIP, 1.7 BB/9 and 11.1 K/9 across 109 IP.

  • Pitched 7 shutout frames against the Yankees on July 27. Has allowed just 1 run in his last 14 1/3 IP against the Yanks
  • Has given the Mets at least 6 IP in 9 straight starts

Mets at Yankees picks and predictions

Prediction

Mets 5, Yankees 4

Money line

The Mets are worthy of being significant favorites in this spot. The Yanks would be a decent play against the grain at +145 or +150. But a line move that far seems unlikely.

STEER CLEAR.

Run line/Against the spread

Peg these 2 offenses as being either bloated (Mets) or undercut (Yankees) by recent situational results. That same principle holds up in the Yankees’ recent won-loss record, so there is a sliver of room for profit on the YANKEES +1.5 (-125).

Over/Under

These Big Apple foes have combined for 9 total runs in 7 of their last 9 meetings. The Scherzer half of this starting mound match-up (and the Yankees’ recent woes with the bats) makes for low total here.

But the price is attractive in shading something higher. Consider a partial-unit play on the OVER 7.5 (-102).

New York Mets at New York Yankees odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s New York Mets at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The New York Mets (42-36) face the New York Yankees (41-40) for Game 1 of their seven-inning doubleheader Sunday at Yankee Stadium. First pitch is scheduled for 2:05 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Mets vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.

The Mets beat the Yankees 8-3 in the first game of the series Saturday with their one through three hitters (CF Brandon Nimmo, SS Francisco Lindor and 1B Dominic Smith) batting a combined 8-for-15 with four RBIs.

Season series: Mets lead 1-0.

RHP Marcus Stroman takes the mound for the Mets. Stroman is 6-6 with a 2.45 ERA (88 1/3 IP, 24 ER), 1.11 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9 and 7.9 across 16 starts.

  • Last outing: Loss, 4-2, with 3 IP, 2 ER, 5 H, 3 BB and 3 K last Sunday vs. the Philadelphia Phillies.
  • vs. Yankees on the current roster: 120 at-bats with a .292/.370/.492 slash line, 25/15 K/BB, 6 HR and 17 RBIs.

RHP Gerrit Cole is on the rubber for the Yankees. Cole is 8-4 with a 2.66 ERA (101 2/3 IP, 30 ER), 0.91 WHIP, 1.5 BB/9 and 11.4 K/9 over 16 starts.

  • Last outing: Loss, 9-2, with 5 IP, 5 ER, 8 H, 2 BB and 6 K last Sunday at the Boston Red Sox.
  • vs. Mets on the current roster: 73 at-bats with a .247/.276/.466 slash line, 21/3 K/BB, 4 HR and 9 RBIs.

  • Money line: Mets +145 (bet $100 to win $145) | Yankees -175 (bet $175 to win $100)
  • Against the spread/ATS: Mets +1.5 (-160) | Yankees -1.5 (+135)
  • Over/Under: 6 (O: -105 | U: -115)

Prediction

Yankees 4, Mets 2

Money line (ML)

“LEAN” to the YANKEES (-175) for a half unit because of the expectation that Cole will have a bounce-back performance after his worst outing of the season in Boston his last time out.

New York is sliding further and further back in the AL East standings and the Yankees need their ace to get them back on track. New York has lost six of its last seven games heading into next weekend’s All-Star break.

Both lineups have been severely disappointing thus far but the Yankees’ struggles at the plate have been more publicized since they came into this season in a win-now mode and the World Series odds to back that up.

However, the Yankees hitters do have a higher WAR, wRC+, wOBA, BB/K rate and hard-hit rate than the Mets.

FANTASY BASEBALL: Serious about winning your league? Sign up for BaseballHQ.com to dominate the competition. Subscribe now!

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

PASS because the Yankees -1.5 (+135) will have two less innings to win by two or more runs and they are just 14-27 ATS as a home favorite this season while the Mets +1.5 (-160) are 15-7 ATS as a road underdog.

Over/Under (O/U)

Slight “LEAN” to the OVER 6 (-105) for a one-third unit because each starters’ pitching peripherals are as surprisingly bad as their basic numbers against their respective opponents and the Over is 3-0-1 in the last four Mets-Yankees meetings.

That being said, it’s only a “lean” because Cole is still a Cy Young contender despite a couple of recent rough outings and Stroman is a “top of the rotation” starter as well.

New York Mets at New York Yankees odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s New York Mets at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The New York Mets (41-36) and New York Yankees (41-39) play the opener of a three-game interleague set Saturday at Yankee Stadium. First pitch is scheduled for 1:05 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Mets vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.

RHP Taijuan Walker is the projected starting pitcher for the Mets. He is 6-3 with a 2.38 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, 9.3 K/9 and 2.8 BB/9 in 79 1/3 IP over 14 starts.

Walker allowed just 1 run on 3 hits and a walk with 5 strikeouts in 5 innings earning no decision June 25 against the Philadelphia Phillies in his last start. He went 2-2 with a 3.26 ERA in five starts in June.

LHP Jordan Montgomery is the projected starting pitcher for the Yankees. He is 3-2 with a 4.06 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, 8.8 K/9 and 2.5 BB/9 in 82 IP over 15 starts.

Montgomery lost his last start allowing just 3 runs on 8 hits and 2 walks with 5 strikeouts over 6 innings in a quality start at Boston last Saturday. His 3.77 ERA in five starts in June marked his best month of the season.

  • Over/Under: 8.5 (O: -115 | U: -105)

Prediction

Mets 6, Yankees 4

Money line (ML)

Both sides are rested after Friday’s rainout which will be made up Sunday as part of a day-night doubleheader, so Saturday’s game is the new opener of this interleague set.

The Mets are 7-2 in their last nine tries against a winning team and they have one of their best pitchers on the hill. Take METS (+125) as a nice play in this road game.

FANTASY BASEBALL: Serious about winning your league? Sign up for BaseballHQ.com to dominate the competition. Subscribe now!

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The METS +1.5 (-155) are a decent play on the run line if you’re not quite feeling them to win straight up. Remember though that the Yankees are just 1-5 in their last six games overall and 1-4 in their last five as a favorite.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 8.5 (-115) is the way to go in this game. The Over has hit in the last four interleague games for the Mets and 4-1-1 in the last six for the Yankees at home.

In addition, these Subway Series games have been slugfests over the years, with the Over 13-3-1 in the last 17 meetings at Yankee Stadium.

New York Mets at New York Yankees odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Friday’s New York Mets at New York Yankees odds and lines, with MLB picks and predictions.

The New York Mets (41-36) and New York Yankees (41-39) open a three-game Subway Series Friday with a 7:05 p.m. ET first pitch at Yankee Stadium. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook‘s lines around the Mets vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.

RHP Taijuan Walker is the projected starting pitcher for the Mets. In 14 starts this season, Walker is 6-3 with a 2.38 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, 9.3 K/9, and 2.8 BB/9 in 79 1/3 IP.

Albeit in limited at-bats, current Yankees own a high-contact .980 OPS against the veteran right-hander. However, Walker has been terrific of late:  since June 3 when he walked 4 batters against just 2 strikeouts at the San Diego Padres he has logged a 2.84 ERA and 0.99 WHIP in 25 1/3 IP, issuing just 2 walks while fanning 31.

LHP Jordan Montgomery is the projected starting pitcher for the Yankees. he is 3-2 with a 4.06 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, 8.8 K/9 and 2.5 BB/9 in 82 IP over 15 starts.

Montgomery owns a 3.35 ERA over his last seven starts. Over that span he’s faced the talented batting orders of the Red Sox, Athletics, Blue Jays (twice), Twins, and White Sox. The Bronx lefty owns a tidy 2.61 ERA over seven starts at Yankee Stadium in 2021.

Prediction

Yankees 5, Mets 3

Money line (ML)

Peg New York’s American League entry as the best side in this one. TAKE THE YANKEES (-145).

The Mets are 1-4 over their last 5 games; the Yankees are 1-5 over their last 6. Both bullpens have been on a slide, and the Yanks more so than the Mets, but the Yankees offense has at least started to crank it up. They own an .808 OPS over the last two weeks while the Mets have posted a figure exactly 200 points lower.

Montgomery has a fair line while Walker’s has been supercharged from some hard-to-repeat rates around the margins, such as his .261 batting average on balls in play, for instance.

Run line/Against the spread (ATS)

The run-line price on the Yankees is attractive. BACK THE YANKEES -1.5 (+135).

Over/Under (O/U)

A cooler, breeze-in night in the Bronx, complete with decent starters, above-average bullpens, and a rested Yankee relief corps all factor into 8 runs being a well-made total.

TAKE THE UNDER 8.5 (+100).
