The read

Listen, kid, I've seen more fastballs than a speed camera. Here's the lowdown: Yu Darvish (ERA 9.18) is having a tough time on the mound with a batting average against of .309.

That's like serving up meatballs to a hungry lion. On the other side, Clay Holmes (ERA 3.40) has been holding his own, keeping hitters at a respectable .239.

The Mets' top hitters, particularly Lindor with his 20 HRs, are more likely to capitalize on Darvish's rocky performance. Mets are my moneyline pick - but do you have the guts to ride with me on this one?
