Key Storylines to Watch
Pitching Form: I’m sure the odds of this happening are astronomical, but both starting pitchers in this game have the same ERA. José Quintana (6-2, 3.30 ERA) has been solid for the Brewers, while David Peterson (5-4, 3.30 ERA) has provided consistency for the Mets. I am interested to see how both fare against above-average lineups tonight.
Team Momentum: Keep in mind that these teams have been moving in opposite directions lately. The Brewers have won 7 of their last 10 games, including the first game of this series with the Mets. The Mets have struggled recently, going 3-7 in their last 10 outings and falling behind the Philadelphia Phillies in the NL East standings.

Final Thoughts
Given the Mets’ strong home record and the Brewers’ recent form, I wouldn’t expect anything other than a close game. The starting pitchers in this game are identical in terms of their ERA, but the Mets’ home-field advantage and superior power batting numbers make them the best value in my eyes. The value lies in the Mets’ moneyline and I am not opposed to betting the under here either, as both pitching staffs should have a solid night.
