New York Mets vs Pittsburgh Pirates Predictions 9/5/2022

Pittsburgh dropped five of its last six games and four in a row. They just suffered a sweep at home at the hands of Toronto, losing 4-3 on Sunday.

J.T. Brubaker, the Pirates’ starter, turned up a respectable outing, going 5.1 innings while allowing just two earned runs.

O’Neil Cruz, a 6-7 shortstop, is the Pirates’ lone bright spot at the moment. He is still developing as a bat at the age of 23, but he does have impressive power (12 home runs) and speed (6 sbs) given his stature.

The Pirates are one of baseball’s worst hitting clubs, scoring 3.51 runs per game on average, batting.219 (29th), and launching 129 home runs (19th). They had trouble pitching, ranking 26th overall with a 4.67 ERA and 27th with a 1.43 WHIP, and they played terrible defense (97 errors).

The Pirates’ Mitch Keller will take the mound. In six innings of work against Milwaukee, he allowed just two runs while fanning ten. The result was a 4-2 victory. This season, Keller has a 4.43 ERA and a 4-10 record.

The total went UNDER in 5 of the Pirates’ previous 5 matches.
The Pittsburgh Pirates are 2-12 SU in their previous 14 matches.
The total went OVER in 9 of Pittsburgh’s last 11 matches against the NY Mets.

New York Mets vs Pittsburgh Pirates. The MLB pick for this game is the New York Mets. The Atlanta Braves are closing in quickly on the New York Mets for first place in the NL East, making this game crucial for the Mets.

The Pirates are a shockingly awful baseball club that may get out to a decent start but eventually loses control of the game in the bullpen or runs in the lineup.

Last weekend’s game against baseball’s poorest squad left the Mets looking foolish. This club is 39-27 on the road this year while the Pirates are 26-38 at home, thus that loss was an exception. Walker helps the Mets win easily by putting them back on track.

The New York Mets will win by a predicted score of 6-2.
