The Met fans are hitting the panic button. Syndergaard got scratched due to a tired arm and Cespedes goes down with another hamstring injury. These aren’t season-ending injuries but hamstring injuries could be nagging and take a while to fully heal. Syndergaard with a tired arm already would scare me a little bit. The Mets have dropped 6 in a row and need to begin to figure it out.
The Red Sox failed to give Sale run support again as he let up 1 run and lost the game. The Yankees got the best of the Red Sox and shut down the dynamic offense. Boston vs. Cubs this week where it should be a fight of the heavyweights.
It’s Free Line up Friday, we have a full slate of games tonight so lets get to it.
Low-Scoring Plays
New York Mets @ Washington Nationals – Just to pile it on the Mets they face one of the best pitchers in baseball. Scherzer should dominate this depleted lineup and will be a great play. deGrom looks to be one of the sure thing the Mets have this season. He should be able to shut down the Nationals.
Targets: Scherzer, Zimmerman
Pittsburgh Pirates @ Miami Marlins – Neither team is having that great of a year offensively. Taillon has been playing well averaging 17.5 points per game. He has 20 strike outs which will be important against the Marlins. Conley takes the mound for the Marlins. He isn’t as good as the Taillon but the Pirates are terrible on offense.
Targets: Taillon, McCutchen
High-Scoring Plays
Baltimore Orioles @ New York Yankees – Both these teams have been swinging the bat well. With warm weather in New York, and two pitchers who are good but not great this game should be a slugfest. The Yankees are a strong team at home and are my favorite to win this game but the Orioles will keep pace.
Targets: Headley, Judge
