Houston at New York

The New York Mets have underachieved all season, or was it just that expectations were set too high? This team has trouble scoring runs, playing 28-16 to the UNDER in their last 44 games. Brett Myers has been reborn this season pitching to an ERA of just over 3 for the Astros. Those numbers, and a lousy Astros’ offense, have led to a 14-6-1 mark to the UNDER in his last 21 starts, including 8-2 to the UNDER in his last 10 on the road. Johan Santana has already had 17 starts on the season where he has allowed 2 runs or less, and just 16 of his last 53 starts have managed to top the total. Houston has been able to top the total on the road vs. a lefthander in just 16 of their last 53, and the last seven between these clubs have all stayed UNDER the total. The UNDER gets the call.
