alright I am breaking out of my 2 game slump with the METS +101.... why?
Mets hit lefties as a team over .300 and last night they struggled vs. one of the hottest pitchers in the MLB... fortunately for them they are going to see one of the most struggling pitchers in the MLB today as they face Ted Lilly who just does not have command of his pitches..... 1.71 WHIP given up 25 hits in 18 innigs this guy is a wreck but he still has the name TED LILLY and after last years performance fading him gives us lots of value
He has pitched better at home but he still dayum near allows 1 run every inning... with the wind blowing out to left center and with LIlly's tendency to leave the ball up in the zone this equals many runs for the Metsies.... I do think the CUbs will put up some klind of a number on figuerora as this is his 1st START away from home this season but I think the Mets put up at least 6 so my bet is basically that the Cubs score less than that :wink:
Cubs still have a losing record vs. teams OVER .500 and I am yet to buy into their " greatness" just yet...Do not think their bullpen is as good as its start and that has more to do with them facing crappy hitters more than anything prediction Mets 9 Cubs 4
GL everyone and please feel free to fade away :nopityA:
