This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the New York Mets.

A couple of competent starters go head-to-head on Saturday night, but we think the advantage lies with the visitors. The Mets turn to Jacob DeGrom (3-4, 2.96 ERA) who comes in off a loss despite a quality start, giving up three runs off five hits over six innings in an eventual 6-0 loss to these very Braves. Julio Terhan opposed DeGrom in that one and he'll once again be on the hill for the home side today. DeGrom has five straight quality starts to his name and nine in 12 outings overall, but a lack of run support was just too much for him to overcome last week. Terhan (3-7, 2.66) was dealing in that contest, striking out seven in the shutout performance. Teheran had a rough April, but has turned things around of late, but note that he's 0-4 with a pedestrian 3.28 ERA at home this year. Revenge is a powerful motivating factor, we love DeGrom and the Mets to respond today and to find a way to get the job done vs. the lowly Braves. Play on NEW YORK.
