Happy Hump Day!
As Game 3 of the NLCS unfolds, the Mets return home after a thrilling Game 2 victory in Los Angeles, ready to seize the moment. With Walker Buehler’s inconsistency on the mound and the Mets averaging 2.65 first-five runs this season, New York looks poised to keep the momentum rolling. The Dodgers’ road struggles only add to the intrigue—will the Mets capitalize early once again?

Mark Vientos is ready to rock and roll at home in Game 3
I will either be spot on or way off again—no in-between this postseason. The Mets’ first-five team total over 1.5 missed in Game 1 but cashed easily in Game 2, and I like it again for Game 3 at home.

The Mets face another inconsistent Dodgers starter, Walker Buehler. The 30-year-old right-hander has allowed over 1.5 runs in 15 of his 17 starts this season, including the postseason, posting a 5.38 ERA and 1.55 WHIP. He’s coming off a rough NLDS start, giving up six runs on seven hits in five innings against the Padres.
Stealing Game 2 in L.A. was huge for the Mets, and they’ll look to carry that momentum back home. The offense has averaged 2.65 first-five runs all season, while the Dodgers have struggled on the road, allowing 2.88 runs to their opponents in the first five.
Other Options
The price might be a bit juicy, but if you prefer a safer play, you could take the Mets’ first-five moneyline (pushes if tied) or their first-five spread (-0.5) at plus money. Just be cautious—Luis Severino has allowed 3+ runs in five straight starts, so know what you’re getting into if you go for the better-priced prop.
