The franchise also scored 277 runs with a .231 batting average and .306 on-base percentage this season. First baseman Rowdy Tellez impresses his team with a .248 batting, ten home runs, and 38 RBIs this season.

Expected to take the mound for Thursday night’s clash is Aaron Ashby. The pitcher is 1-5 with a 3.91 ERA, 1.44 WHIP over 50.2 innings pitched. He is the third-best player on the pitching staff and holds a .250 batting average in 13 games.

Why bet on the New York Mets?

The Mets have a staggering 41-23 record this season and look to win their fourth game in six outings. New York scored the opener of this series with a four-to-nothing score. They hold the best NL East division record now and produce solid results when playing in familiar territory. The team’s 20-9 home record is evidence of their consistency at home.

New York’s pitching staff is on a roll. They record a 3.87 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and a .236 opponent batting average. Furthermore, the side registers 322 runs and a .23 batting average with a .334 on-base percentage. Pete Alonso tops the squad and is batting .284 with 18 home runs and 59 RBIs.

The projected starter for the Mets is Tylor Megill. He has a 4-2 record this season with a 4.50 ERA. The 26-year-old also boasts a 1.18 WHIP over 38 innings pitched this season. Although he doesn’t register the same minutes as teammates Chris Bassitt and Carlos Carrasco, he does have unique qualities that will make him a key piece in their efforts to take down the Brewers.

Brewers vs. Mets Betting Prediction

Both teams are playing well this season and have a game apiece in this series. New York has the home field advantage and has Tylor Megill lined up, who lasted 3.1 innings and allowed two runs in his previous start. Meanwhile, Milwaukee’s Ashby allowed ten runs in his last two starts and now looks for a less demanding stint against the Mets. The hosts have the clear advantage on paper, but we cannot discount what a Brewers squad with momentum can bring to the table. Ultimately, we anticipate another exciting clash to end the series on Thursday night.
