Why The Mets Could Cover The Spread

Quintana has pitched well for the Mets in his starts with them this season. He has a 3.26 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, and he has gone at least six innings in all but two of his starts this season. In his starts this year, Quintana has allowed more than three earned runs just one time, and more than two earned runs just two times. The Mets do not have many wins when he pitches, but they also do not give him much run support. As long as Quintana has the same type of start that he has been, the Mets will cover the spread.

Why The Nationals Could Cover The Spread

Corbin has had one good start and one just average start against the Mets this season. However, he is 2-0 against New York, so he always puts his team in a position to win the game. He has been giving up some hits, but he does not let the Mets capitalize on them. In the worse start, the Mets got him for two home runs. That is what the Mets rely on to try and win games. If Corbin can keep the Mets in the yard, the Nationals will cover the spread.

Final Mets-Nationals Prediction & Pick

This should end up being a close game. Both teams have struggled this season, but they have also both caught fire at one point or another. With that said, Quintana has been throwing the ball very well for the Mets, so I trust him over Corbin. I will take the Mets to cover the spread.

Final Mets-Nationals Prediction & Pick: Mets -1.5 (+114), Over 9 (-120)
