San Diego has a losing record at home and is back to doing what they do best -- not scoring. San Diego has slumped to #24 in baseball in runs scored, #25 in on base percentage. San Diego has lost seven of its last 11 games, and Wednesday's 2-0 setback against Colorado marked its eighth shutout defeat in just 28 contests. The Padres are 18-40 against a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15 and face Mets' righty Jacob deGrom (3-0, 1.02 ERA). The Mets have won 13 of their last 16 games after rolling to an 8-0 home victory over Atlanta yesterday. New York is 22-9 on the road against a team with a losing home record. The New York offense is #11 in runs scored and faces San Diego wild man Colin Rea (4.61 ERA), experiencing control issues, handing out 13 walks in 27+ innings while posting a 1.57 WHIP. The Mets are 36-16 in deGrom's last 52 starts, so grab the hot visitors and play the NY Mets.
