New York Mets vs Atlanta Braves Prediction

Game 1 prediction: The most important game in this doubleheader is Game 1, as the winner will clinch a playoff spot and rest all of their players while saving a key starter. Megill has allowed just 4 earned runs in his last 20 innings, while thresholdsbach has allowed 9 earned runs in his last 29.2 innings. Both pitchers are in great shape and it will have the feel of a playoff game. Pitching and defense will likely dictate the path. I’m going with the under in the first game.

Game 2 prediction: Game 2 is a selection you would make based on the winner of Game 1. Again, whoever wins the first game has already won and is probably resting, folks. I wouldn’t expect Severino or Sale to start this game, depending on the winner of the first contest. It’s all about doing the dance. One of these planned starters would be reserved for the wild card series. This gives the loser of Game 1 a huge advantage in Game 2. So my pick in Game 2 is whoever loses the first game. Sorry, Arizona Diamondbacks.
