New York Mets over San Diego Padres 1st 5 INNGS ONLY: Nym went 13 inngs yest so the bullpen is worn down along with the fact the majority of this value is in the starting pitching we will play this bet 1st half only. Nym are 4-1 vs. LH early on this year. Richard is a soft tossing 34 year old who has had 1 good start and that was vs. Mil first time out. He has given up 16 runs in his last 20 inngs. Over 90 ABs Nym are hitting 411 off him. DeGrom has started the year pitching as good as anyone on the staff. 32 inngs he already has 40K with only 8 BB. With an ERA of 2.53 he is actually pitching even better with an XERA of 2.29. I have this game at 1.76 giving us excellent value.
