An interesting one last night, in fact, where I, I didn't You and I said it.
Your boy Stock, Strock rather, there on the Mets.
We had said if the Mets were gonna win a game, they, their best shot at doing it was likely going to be last night.
Well, they won a game last night.
Now Freddy Peralta, ironically enough, is on the mound for the Rays at home, taking on Manaea of the Mets here.
And i- it's certainly a cheap enough price to think that the Rays can bounce back at home, unless I mean, you were never a big Freddy P. Guy, but it looks like he has figured some things out here over the last couple of starts, Craig.
Yeah.
Boy, like it's, it's really hard to click that -135 button or whatever it is with Tampa Bay tonight, just because- Peralta has not been that good.
But the thing is with him, you pull him out, Joe, after the third or fourth inning, and Tampa Bay throws seven other guys at you, and you still think that you could win the game.
I would be- Yep very surprised if the Rays lost this series.
I really would.
Now, you know I like Robert Stock, and I'm happy for him that he had a really good game last night.
Went about five innings I think and, and didn't really give up much by the way.
Yep.
And then the Mets ended up winning that game.
But I think the tables turn today.
I may be a little bit more interested in this total, Joe.
This feels very low.
Seven and a half for these two starting pitchers tonight?
I, I mean, Manaea's not good.
And, you know, Peralta is, is gonna be better as the season goes on, but he is very prone to the long ball as well.
So I, I may think over on the seven and a half.
And then, you know, the other guy too, I mean, it seems like easy.
I mean, look, I don't know about an easy, but potential home run will be Junior Caminero tonight.
I, I would think that he's got a great shot tonight to hit a home run off Sean Manaea.
Yeah.
I'm looking at, you know, the Mets over recently too.
I mean, the one run, two runs, maybe two.
They, they haven't scored a ton.
They got three runs last night.
But the bats have cooled down a little bit.
It's You just gotta think that the Rays at least I, I think the Rays team total might not be a bad way to look either here, as it's been going back and forth from seven and a half to eight in this one.
But they have been good at home.
And I, I just thought the Mets were fortunate to walk away with that win last night.
