Do the Mets really get swept here? I don't think so as they send Stroman to the mound to avoid the sweep. The Mets are actually atop the NL East currently which is a surprise with how inconsistent they've been and the lack of offense at times this season. Marcus Stroman is having a fantastic year for the Mets, constantly keeping his team in the game. He is only 3-3 on the year with an impressive 1.99 ERA, however he could probably be 5-1 if he had more run support. On the flip side the Rays will send Josh Fleming to the hill. He has done well this year, however that said he comes off giving up just 1 earned to the Yankees and might be in for a let down here as he faces a motivated Mets lineup eager to bust out. He's thrown 30 innings this season, with only 16 strikeouts, which means the Mets will get opportunities to put the ball in play against him. We think Stroman will do what he does and give the Mets every chance here with a strong pitching performance, while the Mets likely bust out putting some runs on the board as they will avoid the sweep. Take the Mets to get it done today. Mets are 7-0 in their last 7 games as a favorite. Mets are 4-0 in their last 4 during game 3 of a series.
