Ross Benjamin
(971) New York Mets at (972) Toronto Blue Jays
Sean Manaea has pitched 6.2 innings or more in each of his last 5 starts. During his previous 3 starts the Mets lefthanded hurler has been in very good form while posting a 3.10 ERA/0.68 WHIP and averaged 6.8 innings pitched per start. The Mets bullpen staff has a terrific 2.38 ERA/0.93 WHIP amd better than a 4:1 strikeout to walk ratio over their previous 7 games. However, during those previous 7 games the Mets have a terrible .194 team batting average and .264 on-base-percentage. Luckily for them, they only allowed 2.9 runs per game during that stretch.
Bowden Francis of the Blue Jays has been superb over his last 5 starts while compiling a 1.29 ERA/o.43 WHIP and averaged 7.0 innings pitched per outing. Toronto has played 3-1-1 to the under when playing the Mets since last season.
Give me this game to go under the total.
