Athletics vs. Mets Prediction: Tuesday, August 13th

As the Mets fight for a wild card spot in the National League, they’ve hit a bit of a bump lately but, luckily for them, the Oakland Athletics are coming to town for a series! It's even better news too as they’ll send out Ross Stripling to the mound with his 5.72 ERA and 1.49 WHIP. 

The Mets should mash in this spot tonight and are overdue considering they’ve scored just 1 run in the last 3 games, granted it was in Seattle against that pitching staff for the Mariners. Either way, I am fired up to put down MLB best bets number one here on the Mets team total over 4.5 runs! 

The next wager will come on via MLB prop bets, and I am searching for the right Met bat to back. It must be Francisco Lindor for me tonight as he’s hit well over .300 over the past week and, of course, is a switch hitter, which should workout well with Stripling allowing a .335 average and .838 OPS against lefties this season. 

Lindor will be on base plenty because of this, so I am taking the over on 1.5 hits+runs+RBIs to finalize my MLB best bets today.
