Schule's 10* MLB T-E-R-M-I-N-A-T-O-R (+$27,992 All Sports Totals 2016)
(MLB) NY Mets vs. Atlanta, 06/23/2016 3:10 PM, Score: 3 - 4
Total: 7.50 | 106.00 Over
Result: Win
This is a 10* play on NYM@ATL to go UNDER the total.

The Mets are 3.5 games back of Washington in the NL East, and they visit the last place Braves on Thursday night. The Braves rank dead last in the major leagues in scoring, and the Mets are only slightly better, ranking 28th among 30 teams. Given the offensive shortcomings of both teams, tonight's total looks a little high.

Matt Harvey will toe the slab for the visitors, and he's looking to bounce back from a home loss to the Braves in his last start. Harvey (4-9, 4.76 ERA) allowed four runs on seven hits, striking out five in six innings, losing 5-1. That came after allowing just two runs over 20 innings in his previous three starts. He's lost twice to the Braves at home this season, but he won in Atlanta, allowing just two runs on seven hits in five innings. Prior to this season he was 1-1 with a 2.63 ERA in two starts at Turner Field.

The Braves hand the ball to Matt Wisler, who nearly tossed a no-hitter against the Mets earlier in the year. The 23 year old gave up just one hit and a pair of walks through eight scoreless innings in a 3-0 win at Citi Field. He's owned the Mets in his short career, holding them to a combined .172 batting average over 85 at bats.

These two teams have failed to reach the total in six of the last seven meetings.

Take UNDER.
