Extreme value on these Mets at HOME here. Of course we are getting this good value due to the fact that "Kershaw" is taking the ball for the LAD. The fact is that he has not been a very good post-season pitcher & did labor in his 1st start this post-season. The FACTS are that the LAD have won just 3 of the 9 post-season starts that Kershaw has made. These Mets are smacking the baseball around right now & IMO are just the better baseball club overall as well. The Dodgers bullpen simply cannot be trusted and I do not expect Kershaw to shut down the Mets tonight. So, we should see some of that poor LAD bullpen again this evening. The Mets send out an under-valued IMO starter in Matz this evening. I also like the fact that these LAD have not had success vs Matz in very limited action vs (as a club just 2-16 off him). These LAD are also not as potent vs LH pitching, which I like for us as well here. So I don't see the SP matchup as big of a 'mismatch' of most think it may be, then we have the edge in the bullpen(s) with the Mets and are are also getting the club who is hitting the ball better right now. Great value on the METS +1.5 here and I have also played a partial play on the money-line as well. We shall just see what happens here, as always....
