Dodgers @ Mets

The Mets have had the Dodgers number of late, winning 3 of the last four and two of three in the first of the series this year.  The Dodgers are also looking to end a four game road losing streak.

PITCHING PROBABLES: Dodgers: Gavin Stone (4-2, 3.60 ERA, 1.30 WHIP, 34 strikeouts); Mets: Tylor Megill (0-2, 3.00 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, 11 strikeouts)

LINE Dodgers -152, Mets +128; over/under is 8 1/2 runs

TOP PERFORMERS: Starling Marte leads the Mets with a .259 batting average, and has seven doubles, six home runs, 11 walks and 19 RBI. J.D. Martinez is 11-for-42 with two home runs and five RBI over the past 10 games.

Shohei Ohtani leads the Dodgers with 13 home runs while slugging .621. Teoscar Hernandez is 11-for-32 with three doubles, a home run and two RBI over the last 10 games.

Coming off the injury list, Megill was charged with three runs (two earned) over five innings on Monday in a loss to the Guardians.

Stone lost to the Diamondbacks after allowing four runs in six innings on Tuesday.  He has the ability to pitch into the 7th inning while the Mets relievers have been nothing to write home about.

We'll be on the Dodgers and hope this game concludes.

Know the Rules When Games Are Suspended, Postponed

The Orioles and St. Louis Cardinals suspended their game Tuesday night after a rainstorm rolled over Busch Stadium ahead of the bottom of the sixth inning. They plan to resume the contest, which was tied 1-1 when the grounds crew rolled out the tarp, at 12:15 p.m. Wednesday and play their series finale 30 minutes after.

Sportsbooks have different rules on suspended games just like they do for postponements. Most books may keep the bet active if the game is going to be resumed within 24 to 36 hours.

With DraftKings, for example, Bets on games suspended after they have started will have action as long as the game is resumed within 36 hours of the original start time.
