The Stank:
On this Friday, the Marlins’ starter, Roddery Munoz, faces a challenging matchup. Munoz has the worst pitcher rating and allows the second-highest average hitter contact. His stats are concerning: a 5.67 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, and he’s allowed more than 2.5 runs in consecutive starts. This season, he’s allowed over 2.5 runs in eight out of 15 starts.
The Mets have seven elite-rated hitters and rank second in average hitter matchup ratings. The Mets are particularly strong in the first five innings, averaging 2.69 runs. This is nice, especially considering that the Marlins allow the second-most runs in the first five innings, with an average of 3.04 runs allowed.
Given Munoz’s struggles and the Mets’ offensive prowess, there’s a good chance the Mets will continue their trend of scoring early and often.
Let’s hope for a strong performance and cash in early!

The Stank:
Francisco Lindor’s bases prop is looking promising, especially when you consider his elite status as a hitter. According to Batters-box.com’s ratings, Lindor is one of the seven elite-rated Mets’ hitters. In a sample size of 15 games where he held this elite rating, Lindor recorded at least one hit in 86.67% of the games.
Lindor has been on fire recently, batting .341 with 15 hits, including four extra-base hits. During this span, he recorded six multi-hit games. The Mets shortstop matches up particularly well against Munoz’s repertoire. Three of Munoz’s five pitches are well below league average, and the two that are above are only slightly so. Against Munoz’s two main pitches, Lindor is batting above .250 with an OPS over .809.
Considering his current form and favorable matchup, the price on Lindor’s bases prop looks like great value. Fridays just got a little better.
