Giants vs. Mets, 1:10 p.m. ET
Run line: SF +1.5 (-180), NYM -1.5 (+155)
Total: 8
Moneyline odds: SF +155, NYM -135
ML pick: Mets -135
The Mets are looking to get back into the win column after having their three-game winning streak snapped in a 5-2 defeat by the San Francisco on Wednesday night. New York has the advantage on the mound with Carrasco, who owns an ERA of 0.84 in two starts this season. Even though the 35-year-old hasn’t picked up a win yet, he has only gave up one earned run and posted 13 strikeouts in 10.1 innings pitched.
DeSclafani walks into today’s matinee game against New York with an ERA of 4.32 in his first two outings. The 32-year-old starter pitched well in his last start against Cleveland, allowing five hits, two earned runs, and posted four strikeouts in 4.2 innings pitched. San Francisco’s offense is only hitting .220 in his last 10 games, which is not great when facing a pitcher like Carrasco.
Carlos Carrasco over 5.5 strikeouts (-110)
The veteran starting pitcher has a favorable matchup against a Giants offense that is only averaging 9.50 strikeouts per game (ranked 26th in the NBA). Carrasco has gone over 5.5 strikeouts once this season, which happened last weekend against Arizona. But in his first start against Washington, he recorded five strikeouts in 5.2 innings pitched. It is not a hard number for him to get over in five innings of work.
