Starting Pitchers Set for Key Series Matchup
The Mets are expected to send Freddy Peralta to the mound on Wednesday afternoon. Peralta enters the contest with a 3-4 record, a 3.55 ERA, and a 1.30 WHIP over 66 innings.

New York Trying to Keep Recent Success Going
The Mets enter this game with a 26-34 overall record and an 11-19 mark on the road. Despite their losing record, New York has won four of its last five games. The Mets recently defeated Miami in three consecutive contests before falling 3-2 in ten innings to Seattle on Monday. That stretch has provided some positive momentum for a club that has spent much of the season below the .500 mark.
Offensively, New York is batting .226 as a team while scoring 241 runs on 452 hits. The Mets have hit 59 home runs and carry a .292 on-base percentage along with a .357 slugging percentage. Their pitching staff has been one of the brighter spots, posting a 3.79 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP while limiting opponents to a .232 batting average. The staff has also recorded 560 strikeouts and issued 223 walks.
The biggest strength for New York has been its pitching. The Mets own a lower ERA than Seattle and have recorded more strikeouts than any team in this matchup. Their .232 opponent batting average is also better than Seattle's .241 mark, showing the staff's ability to consistently limit opposing hitters.
Seattle Riding a Strong Winning Streak
Seattle enters Wednesday's contest with a 32-29 overall record and an 18-15 record at home. The Mariners have won five consecutive games and continue to build momentum. During that stretch, Seattle recently won over Arizona three times and also defeated New York in ten innings. The Mariners have consistently found ways to win close games, with three of their last five victories requiring extra innings.
Seattle is batting .233 while scoring 258 runs on 472 hits. The Mariners have displayed more power than New York, hitting 78 home runs while posting a .317 on-base percentage and a .396 slugging percentage. On the mound, Seattle owns a 3.43 ERA and a 1.18 WHIP while allowing opponents to hit .241. The pitching staff has issued only 155 walks while recording 522 strikeouts.
Seattle's greatest advantage has been balance. The Mariners own the better record, have scored more runs, hit significantly more home runs, and possess a lower WHIP than New York. Their ability to limit walks has also been impressive, as Seattle has issued far fewer free passes than the Mets this season.
New York Mets vs Seattle Mariners Picks and Prediction
New York Mets vs Seattle Mariners Pick
- Pick: Seattle Mariners Moneyline
Seattle enters this game with the stronger overall profile and the better recent form. The Mariners have won five straight games and hold advantages in record, home performance, run production, home runs, WHIP, and ESPN's Matchup Predictor. While New York's pitching numbers have been solid, Seattle's combination of momentum and balanced production makes the home team the preferred side.
New York Mets vs Seattle Mariners Total Pick
- Pick: Take the under if the total is set at 7.5
I would lean toward the under because both starting pitchers enter with ERAs below 4.00 and both teams have quality pitching staffs. New York owns a 3.79 ERA, while Seattle carries an even stronger 3.43 ERA. Monday's opener finished with only five total runs, and the overall pitching numbers suggest another competitive, lower-scoring game.
Final Score Prediction: Seattle Mariners 4 – New York Mets 2
