Huge starting pitching edge. Excellent spot. The Mets have those two key factors going their way here
While the Mets were idle yesterday, courtesy of a postponement against the Yankees, the Padres had to play a doubleheader against the Phillies Sunday.
As disappointing as the Mets have been, the Padres hold a lower win percentage. The rebuilding Padres have lost 22 of their last 28 games, including seven of their past eight.
The Padres are going with Eric Lauer, a bottom-of-the-rotation type with a 4.87 ERA. The Mets are throwing Jacob deGrom, who leads the majors with a 1.68 ERA. deGrom has allowed just one run in his last two starts spanning 16 innings. He has a 1.53 career ERA against the Padres in five starts. deGrom hasn't surrendered more than three earned runs during his last 16 starts.
San Diego ranks among the bottom four in many of the major offensive categories, including runs, batting average and homers.
