- Over 8.5 Runs (1.89):
- The Braves’ Grant Holmes (4-6, 3.71 ERA) is vulnerable, and Atlanta’s 4.70 team ERA (implied from record) suggests scoring opportunities.
- The Mets’ offense (2nd in MLB in runs per game) and Braves’ offense (12th) should combine for a high-scoring game.
Key Stats & Context
- Mets’ Hitting Stack: Soto (career .300+), Lindor, Alonso, and Nimmo form a dangerous top four.
- Braves’ Weakness: Atlanta’s bullpen includes Didier Fuentes (4-18 in minors), a liability per expert Eric Cohen.
- Pitcher Matchup: Canning vs. Holmes is a toss-up (3.91 vs. 3.71 ERA), but both teams have potent lineups to push the total.

Final Thought: This parlay balances the Mets’ dominance with the game’s high-scoring potential. If you’re feeling lucky, consider adding a Juan Soto Over 1.5 Hits (+200) for a 3-leg parlay (~+620). But stick to the 2-leg version for safer, higher-odds action.
