The New York Mets could get nothing going yesterday, as they were hitless through seven innings. That will have little to do with what happens today, as every day is a new day in MLB and starting pitchers change on a daily basis. New York may not score a ton but their defense should come through. One good aspect here for the Mets is the pitching of Bartolo Colon against the Braves. While Colon has struggled, he served seven scoreless innings against the Braves in their home opener. Over his career, he is 4-0 with a glistening ERA of 1.20. The Mets have brought their "A" game recently after a loss where they are a perfect 5-0 in their last five. The Braves have yet to solve Colon, including this season. Atlanta is 157-121 to the UNDER when the total is less than 9 the past couple of seasons. Bartolo Colon is 75-50 UNDER in expected close games (+125 to -125). Take the Mets and the UNDER here.
