Stephen Nover's MLB Total of the Week
(MLB) NY Mets vs. Colorado,
Total: 9.50 | -115.00 Over
Result: Loss
Jacob deGrom trumps Coors Field. The record doesn't show hit because the Mets can't score for him, but deGrom has elevated himself into the best pitcher in baseball talk. He holds the lowest ERA in the majors at 1.55. During his past 10 starts, his ERA is 0.87 and he hasn't allowed more than two earned runs in any of these starts. That's insane.

Against the Rockies career-wise, deGrom is 3-0 with a 0.99 ERA in five starts. The Under has cashed in his past five road starts.

The Rockies are pitching southpaw Tyler Anderson. The Mets are one of the worst hitting teams against lefties. New York isn't very good against any type of pitching having scored three runs or fewer in 11 of its last 13 games. The Mets are really missing their most feared slugger, injured Yoenis Cespedes.

Anderson knows how to pitch at Coors where he has posted a career 3.73 ERA there. Anderson has a 1.50 ERA in his one previous start versus the Mets.

Both pitchers will be aided by a wind blowing in at 8-10 mph.
