Rockies vs Mets MLB Betting Preview
Action PRO projects Mickey Moniak for 0.22 home runs in the Rockies' first game of the day against the Mets, giving us a 6% edge against the market when compared to his current prop line of over/under 0.5, which is good enough to mark the Over with a C+ grade in our system.
The Colorado outfielder has already hit eight home runs this season, and three of them were in the last week.
Moniak is absolutely destroying right-handed pitchers with .367, seven HRS, 14 RBI, .800 slugging and 1.191 OPS, and he will face righty Nolan McLean in Game 1 today.
Although the Mets pitcher has had a great start to the season, his numbers at home aren't as impressive.
McLean has a 3.50 ERA at Citi Field so far, and the two homers he has given up this season were hit there.
At a great value, let's back Moniak today to hit a home run against New York.
Pick: Mickey Moniak Home Run (+520, FanDuel)
