Free Betting Pick: New York Mets -125
While the Pirates started off the season with a bang they have sorta come back to earth since then. We think the Mets are just the better team and should be able to take advantage of a 24-34 road team in the Pirates. The Mets will have a slight pitching advantage with Megill on the mound. Our best bet is NYM-125. Final score prediction the New York Mets win covers the spread and the total goes over 7-2.
