Prediction: Chicago White Sox VS New York Mets 2025-05-27
The New York Mets, fresh off a 3-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers, are looking to keep their momentum going against the struggling Chicago White Sox. The Mets are a whopping -299 favorites, which is no surprise given their 19-6 record at home and the White Sox's abysmal 17-36 overall record.
Clay Holmes will take the mound for the Mets, boasting a 5-3 record and a 3.13 ERA. He'll face off against Adrian Houser, who... well, let's just say the White Sox are hoping for a miracle.
With key players like Francisco Lindor (.273, 10 HR) and Pete Alonso (.292, 9 HR, 38 RBI) leading the charge, it's hard to see the Mets losing this one. The White Sox's Miguel Vargas and Luis Robert will try to put up a fight, but it's unlikely they'll be able to overcome the Mets' strong pitching and home-field advantage.
My best bet for this game? Take the Mets to cover the spread (-1.5) at -105. The Mets have a strong record when favored, and I expect them to come out swinging (literally) against the White Sox. The over/under is set at 8.0, but I think the Mets will shut down the White Sox's offense and keep the score low.
Prediction: Mets win 5-2, covering the spread and staying under the total.
Best Bet: Mets -1.5 (-105)
