The Mets have the better pitcher in Peterson in this game, who has already had two quality starts under his belt this season with an ERA of 2.53, and the Met’s offense and bullpen have been playing well and pulling their weight this season. The Athletics have shown some promise early this season but they are undecided on their pitcher in this game and their bullpen has been an issue so far with a collective ERA over 5. They also have lost four of their last five games and have lost their last five games versus the Mets when at home while the Mets are cruising, winners of seven of their last eight games as they go in the right direction.

Best bet: take the New York Mets on the moneyline (ML).
