The end of an 11-game road trip for the Mets out West. The offense looks out of gas, tallying six runs total the last three games; two of those contests in Coors Field. They haven't scored more than four runs in seven consecutive games, part of a 7-3 run UNDER the total. The Mets' season-long struggles with runners in scoring position has continued, 4-for-18 in this series and a Major League worst .207 for the season. The Mets rank #18 in baseball in runs scored, but at least they have an ace on the hill in Jacob deGrom (3-1, 2.12 ERA). He has walked only five batters in 29+ innings and has allowed three runs or less in every start. Colorado is home with a strong arm of its own going in Tyler Chatwood (4-3, 3.09 ERA). He's allowed fewer hits than innings pitched with a 30-11 strikeout to walk ratio. Colorado is 27-12 UNDER the total against the NL East and 7-2-1 UNDER when their opponent allows five runs or more in their previous game. This shapes up as more of a defensive duel than oddsmakers expect, and the UNDER is 10-3 when they meet. Play UNDER the total here.
