Mets vs Braves Predictions & MLB Picks Today (9/25)

The Braves opened up this three-game series with a massive 5-1 win over the Mets last night. Michael Harris II led by example for Atlanta with three hits, a home run, and two RBIs while rookie RHP Spencer Schwellenbach struck out four batters for his eighth win of the year.

Despite suffering Tuesday’s loss, the Mets still occupy the National League’s second wild-card spot. Having said that, the Braves’ victory has pulled them to within one game of both their NL East rival and the Arizona Diamondbacks, leaving time to tell if they can further close the gap tonight.

The Braves have been playing well since mid-August and head into this evening’s contest with a 5-1 SU record in their last six games. They also have the privilege of playing at Truist Park, where they’ve won 11 of their last 14 encounters with the Mets.

The Braves have dominated the Mets at Truist Park throughout the last few seasons. 

The Mets have been one of baseball’s hottest teams since the All-Star Break, however, they’re only 2-4 SU across their six previous away games.

In order to reverse that trend, New York needs a strong showing from David Peterson. The often-reliable right-handed pitcher has looked like anything but that lately, having gone 0-2 with a 5.17 ERA in his last three starts. Additionally, he’s also winless with a 7.36 ERA in his last trio of appearances against the Braves.

Meanwhile, Atlanta is turning back to NL CY Young candidate Chris Sale to get the job done. The eight-time All-Star southpaw has avoided defeat since June 7, having gone 8-0 with a 1.93 ERA while amassing 107 strikeouts in his last 14 appearances.

Sale is also the opposite of Peterson in the sense that he’s pitched to a 1-0 record and 2.70 ERA in four career starts vs. the Mets.

Braves LHP Chris Sale hasn’t lost a start in over three months. Will that change? 

I predict that the Braves will continue their momentum with another win tonight. The decisively. beat the Mets yesterday and have to keep winning to qualify for the postseason. Furthermore, I can trust the Braves more with Sale on the mound than I can the Mets with Peterson playing.

I’m also taking the Braves to cover the 1.5-run line. After all, they boast an incredible plus-3.4 average run margin in Sale’s last 14 starts while covering the spread on nine of those occasions. Considering how the Mets just lost by 10 runs in Peterson’s last start, I can see the spread being covered again.

Best Mets vs Braves MLB Player Prop (9/25)

Braves slugger Matt Olson is starting to heat up, which is why I’m taking him to hit a home run for the best player prop bet of the night.

Olson is on an absolute heater, slashing .422/.544/.800 across his last 13 games (45 at-bats). He’s also racked up four home runs during that stretch with each of those round-trippers coming in his last six outings alone.

Olson now gets to go up against David Peterson, who he’s taken yard four times in 16 career ABs — including once on July 28.

Best Mets vs. Braves Prop Bet: Matt Olson to Record 1+ Home Run (TBD)
