Betting Odds: Guardians ML (-130) - Over/Under (8.5)
Pick: Guardians ML (-130)
The New York Mets and the Cleveland Guardians will play the third and final game of their three game series here on Wednesday afternoon in downtown Cleveland. This has been an interesting series so far with a low scoring game to open it up on Monday night and a high scoring game in the middle game on Tuesday night.
Which makes plenty of people curious to see what the finale holds here on Wednesday afternoon, as these two teams go their separate ways following this game. So far, it has been all Cleveland as they hold a commanding two games to zero lead over the New York Mets and they will look to complete the sweep here on Wednesday afternoon before heading into the last full weekend of May.
It has been a pretty rough start to the 2024 Major League Baseball season for the New York Mets. This is a team that came into the season with expectations of winning the National League East division and they continue to fall farther and farther behind the Atlanta Braves, and Philadelphia Phillies with each passing week. Despite the star power on their roster like Pete Alonso and Francisco Lindor, they have plenty of work to do if they want to become competitive within the division once again. They have looked underwhelming against Cleveland throughout the first two games of this series, fresh off the back of losing a series to the Miami Marlins as well.
They will look to regroup here on Wednesday afternoon and pick up their first victory of the series to at least try and end this three game stretch on a positive note. They have been unable to stop the hot hitting of Jose Ramirez and David Fry throughout this series and that has been their undoing over the last couple of games. Jose Quintana will get the baseball for the series finale, and he has had a rough year up until this point that he will be looking to turn around with a much-needed victory. As he comes into this game, only a single victory and four losses on his record and he will search for his second win of the season here on Wednesday afternoon.

Cleveland has been one of the hottest teams in baseball and they will look to keep their momentum alive with a series ending victory, and a three game sweep against the New York Mets here on Wednesday. For a baseball franchise that tends to have a rough start to the year and plays catch-up throughout the summer months. Nobody could’ve expected Cleveland to run rough shot through the league in April and May. However, they will improve upon their record as they look to grab their 33rd victory of the season. It was another incredible performance at the plate for Jose Ramirez yesterday, as he recorded multiple RBIs to help lead the team to a victory.
Now he will look to replicate that performance in the finale of this series on Wednesday afternoon at home, as they look to extend their lead in the American League Central division. Triston McKenzie will get the baseball for the finale of this series on Wednesday and he will look to grab his third victory of the season to even his record. He struggled early in the year as he disclosed some issues that could’ve kept him for a solid chunk of the season. However, he has decided to try and pitch through those issues, with the Guardians rotation being decimated by injuries to Shane Bieber and multiple other pitchers. He will look to shut down a New York Mets lineup that has been up-and-down throughout the early part of the year, and get his season back on track in the process.
