Atlanta Braves at New York Mets Preview & Picks

Atlanta are tipped to end their losing skid with a win in this series opener.

Chris Sale gets the start, having missed out when last night's second game agianst Cincinnati was rained out, and he has been in tremendous form this season.

  • Atlanta Braves are 2-1 when visiting New York Mets in 2024
  • Atlanta pitcher Chris Sale is 13-3 with a 2.70 ERA this season
  • The Under has cashed in each of the last 3 meetings
  • The 2 starting pitchers have a combined ERA of 6.28

Head To Head

  • The regular season series is tied at 3-3
  • New York Mets won 4-3 when the two teams last met on May 12

Atlanta Braves Form

Atlanta head to New York in miserabel form, having now lost four of their five games following the All-Star break.

The Braves enjoyed a four-game win streak in early July and went into the mi-season pause having won two of their three games in San Diego.

They opened that series with a 6-1 victory, and then responded to a 4-0 loss with a 6-3 win over the Padres.

Atlanta the made a winning return to action last weekend as they beat St Louis 3-2 at home, but they failed to follow that up.

The Braves lost the next two meetings 9-5 and 6-2, and that skid reached four-in-a-row when they were beaten 4-1 and 9-4 by Cincinnati.

New York Mets Form

New York enter this series on a good run of form, having won four of their five games since the season resumed.

The Yankees put together seven wins in an eight-game spell earlier this month – a run that included a five-game win streak.

They went into the All-Star break on the back of a loss though, falling to an 8-5 defeat at home to Colorado that denied them a series sweep.

New York then lost their first game back in Miami, 6-4, before sandwiching a 4-2 defeat to the Marlins with 1-0 and 6-4 victories.

The Mets then completed a regular season sweep of the New York Yankees, winning 3-2 and 3-0 at Yankee Stadium to go 4-0 against their ‘Big Apple’ rivals this season.

Verdict

Chris Sale was pushed back to this matchup following last night's cancellation and that is a boost for Atlanta.

The Braves starter has piled up a bunch of wins, so we expect the visitors to end their losing run here.
