Mets vs Red Sox Preview, Parlay Picks
Clay Holmes Over 16.5 Outs
I'm backing the Mets pitcher to get the job done and lead his team to victory Tuesday night against the Red Sox.
Clay Holmes has been solid all year. He’s 5-2 with a 3.14 ERA.
Regarding his outs prop, he has covered in three straight games and four of his last five. He has been throwing deeper into games.
Holmes is solid all around, and control is his primary weapon. Throwing a lot of strikes and keeping base runners off are his strengths.
I don't see this changing in Tuesday's matchup.
New York Mets ML
The Mets have been on a little skid of losses, but they should bounce back tonight.
Better pitching in this game will matter, and the Mets' bats will get hot.
As the Phillies try to close the divisional gap, New York will start to string some wins together.
Take the Mets and their stud pitcher to complete the job today.
