The Mets have lost seven straight and I don’t think this is the time to buck the trend. They send out Kodai Senga today who carries a 6.12 ERA on the road this season. John Oviedo hasn’t been moving them down, but he has pitched effectively in his last five. I’ll take the home side getting money. Take Pittsburgh +110.
