Mets vs Giants Betting Pick
This game will be played at Oracle Park at 9:45 PM ET on Tuesday, May 24, 2022.
Why Bet The Giants:
✅ Chris Bassitt (4-2; 2.77 ERA) will take the mound Tuesday at Oracle Park and face the Giants for the second time in 2022. Bassitt got shelled for five earned runs on eight hits in a 5-2 defeat to San Francisco on April 20, and the current Giants are 15-for-57 against the 33-year-old righty. Last Thursday, Bassitt yielded four earned runs on nine hits across 6.1 frames of work in a no-decision against St. Louis.
✅ Logan Webb was charged for a loss in a 3-1 defeat at the Mets on April 19, giving up three earned runs on six hits and three walks through just 3.2 frames of work. Since then, the 25-year-old righty has gone 4-0 in five starts, and the Giants have scored a whopping 45 runs in that stretch. Webb is now 5-1 with a solid 3.54 ERA, 3.10 FIP, and 1.26 WHIP in 2022.

✅ The Giants are more dangerous when hitting against the righties, posting a .251/.332/.390 slash line. Also, 30 of their 43 home runs have come against the right-handed pitchers. There are a lot of righties in the Mets bullpen, which has recorded a 3.86 ERA and 4.03 FIP over the past seven days while allowing a .310 BABIP.
New York Mets

New York is scoring 4.51 runs per game (tied-9th in the MLB). The Mets rank third in the majors in batting average (.253) and 12th in OPS (.709).
San Francisco Giants
The Giants extended their losing streak to four games last Sunday. They suffered a heavy 10-1 defeat to the Padres and fell to 22-18 on the season. The Jints were sitting at the third spot in the NL West, five games behind the leader, the Los Angeles Dodgers.
