Key Stats

New York Mets

The Mets (11-5, 6-4 on the Road) are scheduled to start RHP Tylor Megill (2-1, 0.63 ERA, 1.26 WHIP) as the Metropolitans look to continue their dominance over the Twins and retain their spot atop the NL East. The tall (6-7) Megill has been pretty good so far, and Megill will be facing a team having some trouble scoring runs.

New York has been the best team in the MLB since April 2, with a 9-2 record. Leading the way at the plate has been steady veteran Pete Alonso (.345, .464 OBP, 19 RBI, 19 Hits), Brandon Nimmo (four HR, nine RBI), and New Kid In Queens, Soto (.250, two HR, six RBI), who has yet to really be explosive.

Mets Betting Trends

• The Mets are 9-2 in their last 11 games overall (MLB-best)
• New York has scored 31 runs in its last 5 games
• The Mets are 3-1 on this AL Road Trip (WLWW)
• New York was 24-22 in Interleague Play in 2024
• The Under is 8-2-0 in the last 10 Mets games
• The Under is 3-0-0 in New York’s last 3 games (4, 8, 6 runs)

Minnesota Twins

The Twins (5-12, 2-5 at Home) are scheduled to start RHP Bailey Ober (0-1, 7.11 ERA, 1.74 WHIP), and like counterpart Megill, Ober is a tall drink of water (6-9). In his three starts this season, Ober has allowed 10 ER on 16 hits with three HRs and six walks. This team is having trouble scoring runs (55, #24 in MLB). Leading the way on offense for Minnesota has been Ty France (.288 BA, 17 Hits), Byron Buxton (3 HR), Harrison Bader (10 RBI), and Matt Wallner (.364 OBP). The Twins have won just one series all season, taking 2 of 3 from the lowly White Sox.

Twins Betting Trends

• The Twins are 3-7 in their last 10 games vs the Mets
• The Under is 8-2-0 in the last 10 Twins games
• The Under is also 3-0-0 in the last three Minnesota games
• Minnesota went 18-28 in Interleague play in 2024
• The Twins are just 2-5 at Home so far, an AL Central-worst
• Minnesota has just a .208 BA, tied for the 26th-best in MLB

Prediction

There are two good betting angles worth looking at in this one. The first is backing the Mets, who are playing better baseball, have the Twins’ number of late, and have the better scheduled starting pitcher for Game 2. The second is the Under (at eight only). Both the Mets and Twins have played eight Unders in their last 10 games, with both playing three straight Unders.

This one could play out a lot like Game 1 on Monday Night. With righty Ober getting the pill for the hosts, expect New York to score around or slightly below the six it has averaged over the past five games, with Minnesota tracking to score twice.

Final Picks

Mets -116, Under 8 -110
