Prop Bets: Washington Nationals VS New York Mets 2025-06-12
Mets vs. Nationals Prediction: A No-Brainer in the Big Apple
The New York Mets (43-24) are riding high as they host the struggling Washington Nationals (30-36) at Citi Field on Thursday, June 12, 2025. And why not? The Mets are a staggering -239 favorite, and for good reason - their ace pitcher Kodai Senga takes on a Nationals team that's been, well, let's just say... nationally embarrassed by their 4.89 ERA, 26th in the majors.
The Mets, on the other hand, boast a top-ranked team ERA of 2.86. That's like bringing a nuke to a knife fight. Mike Soroka, the Nationals' starter, has been lit up recently, allowing 18 hits and nine earned runs over his last two starts. No wonder the SportsLine model loves Juan Soto to go Over 0.5 runs (-150) today.
Francisco Lindor, Mets' superstar, is a great bet to go Over 1.5 total bases (-135) against righty Mike Soroka, who he's torched for .385 batting average in their past encounters. And if you're feeling extra adventurous, Jeremy Pena's been on fire lately, with a .403 batting average over his last 15 games.
Game Prediction: Mets -239 to win, Over 8.0 (-185) seems like a lock, considering the Nationals' pitching woes. Soroka's recent form and the Mets' potent lineup make this one a Citi Field rout.
Player Props:
- Juan Soto Over 0.5 runs (-150)
Francisco Lindor Over 1.5 total bases (-135)
Jeremy Pena multi-hit efforts look good, given his recent form.
Pick: Mets to win, Over 8.0, and Lindor to go yard (just kidding, but wouldn't that be something).
