Explosive Offenses Set to Ignite in Showdown Between Angels and Mets Tonight
The Mets are one of the better teams in baseball this season, and have basically catapulted from last year’s success into this year’s continued positive results. They are still behind the Phillies for the division, but the reality is that no one should care if they are in the division or a Wild Card winner. The goal is always to get to the playoffs, and the Mets should be capable of that this season. They’ve truly excelled this season at home though, as they are currently almost 20 games over .500 for the season when playing at Citi Field. They send out Frankie Montas to the hill today. Montas is 2-1 with a 5.03 ERA, and a 1.17 WHIP. He has thrown just 19.2 innings and struck out 17 batters, but also allowed 19 hits. He has been better at home than on the road this year. He only has two starts there, going 10.2 innings and allowing four earned runs, so not a big sample size one way or another. Angels hitters are batting just .229 against him, but they have a third of their hits for extra bases.ÂÂ
