N.Y. Mets @ PHILADEPHIA
N.Y. Mets/PHILADEPHIA over 7½ -116

BEST LINE: Pinnacle over 7½ -116

Bartolo Colon versus Roberto Hernandez. Extremely favorable conditions for hitters’ here with the winds blowing out to right center and the barometric pressure dropping. Dropping pressure is good for overs, as the air is light and the ball travels better. The opposite holds true for rising barometric pressure.

Roberto Hernandez has walked 16 and struck out 16 over his last five starts covering 26 innings. His WHIP over that span is 1.73 and unless he gets extremely lucky with strand percentage, he’s going to a allow runs.

Colon doesn’t walk any but at the age of 41, he’s learning that some of these parks aren’t the same as pitching in Oakland. Colon comes into this one with a 4.73 ERA and a swing and miss rate of 6%.

A hitter’s park with favorable conditions featuring two below average starters has us stepping in.
