Mets vs. A’s prediction, odds

Just a few games into the Athletics’ Sacramento era, Sutter Health Park has proven to be a band box. 

Through Thursday, teams are combining for 11.67 runs per game across six contests at the minor league-turned-big league ballpark. 

Hitters are slashing .281/.346/.465 thus far in Sacramento – all of which rank in the top three in baseball.

Mets vs. A’s prediction

Teams are combining for exactly three homers a game, which is the fourth-most in the league. 

Four of the six games at Sutter Health Park have gone over 10.5 runs, and just one game had fewer than nine total runs. 

As well as David Peterson has pitched for the Mets this year, the southpaw is going to have a tough time keeping the A’s in the yard on Saturday. 

Mets vs. A’s pick

The A’s have yet to name a starter for Saturday, but we can assume it won’t be a world-beater taking the mound. 

Expect balls to fly in California’s capital. 

The play: Over 9.5 runs (BetMGM Sportsbook)
