The set-up: This series features a couple of competitive match-ups on the mound and this is one of them. However, I believe that Hyun Jin-Ryu and the Dodgers are worth the price of admission tonight. The visitors go with Zack Wheeler.
The pitchers: Wheeler is so far 9-7 with a 3.37 ERA. He most recently gave up one run over seven innings, striking out none and receiving a no-decision for his effort against the Giants on Friday. Wheeler's been on a great run of late, but one has to wonder how long he can sustain without showing some sort of regression?
Ryu is so far 4-1 with a 2.24 ERA. He most recently gave up two runs off four hits over seven innings while also striking out five in a no-decision to Arizona on Friday. Over 52.1 innings Ryu has a 2.24 ERA and tiny 0.96 WHIP.
The pick: Ryu is also holding the opposition to a minuscule .186 batting average and note that he's 3-1 with a 1.21 ERA at home. As good as Wheeler has been, I think the Mets' anemic offense comes up short against Ryu. Look for the Dodgers to take advantage and lay this price.
