Who will win Mets vs Cubs today: Cubs moneyline (-112)
The New York Mets have suffered offensively during their current losing streak, being shut out three times and averaging 1.78 runs over its last nine games. Francisco Lindor is hitting .200 while new arrival Bo Bichette is catching the ire of Mets fans thanks to his .564 OPS.
The Chicago Cubs come into today having won three straight, scoring 10+ runs in each game. While Freddy Peralta (1-1, 3.86 ERA) has pitched well enough to give the Mets chances to win, Chicago should score more than enough to outpace this floundering New York lineup. I like the Cubs to win at home.
