Mets Expected to Dominate Marlins in Upcoming Game Based on Statistics and Matchup Strengths

As of June, statistics show a 42.9% probability that the Marlins will not score any runs in a game. Facing Tylor Megill, who effectively neutralized the offensive power of both the Brewers and the Dodgers in recent games, Miami is expected to face a challenge. On the other hand, New York's bullpen is likely to perform well against the Marlins. Jesus Luzardo of Miami may not replicate his previous success against the Mets, considering his recent subpar performance at home and high ERA on the road. The Mets have demonstrated proficiency in hitting against left-handed pitchers, boasting a .260 team batting average and .760 team OPS. Given these factors, it is anticipated that the Mets will secure a decisive victory over the Marlins.
