Today’s matchup is between the Tampa Bay Rays (35-19) and the New York Mets (24-29).

The Rays are starting Blake Snell (LHP), who is 4-1 on the season pitching a 3.05 ERA, 4.10 FIP, .292 wOBA, K% of 30.0%, BB% of 8.%, 88.4 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.15 WHIP in 44.1 innings pitched.

The Mets are starting Seth Lugo (RHP), who is 2-3 on the season with a 4.34 ERA, 4.46 FIP, .339 wOBA, K% of 31.5%, BB% of 5.6%, 90.9 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.31 WHIP in 29.0 innings pitched.

The Rays are the 4th best in the Majors in Relieving Pitching, while the Mets are 17th.

On the hitting side, the Rays have a .322 wOBA and a .327 OBP. The Mets have a .343 wOBA and a .350 OBP. The Rays have 73 HRs this season while the Mets have 96 HRs.

This should be a tight game given the Rays have the starting pitching advantage, but the Mets have the better batting team. I like the Rays to win it here where the most likely scenario is that a reliever comes in and saves the game.
