The New York Mets head to Oakland for the first time since 2017, and the opener of this three-game set against the Athletics has quite a few storylines.
First, is Chris Bassitt’s return to Oakland. The Mets acquired Bassitt in a trade just before the season started, and he has been excellent since dawning the orange and blue. Second, and most importantly, the Mets are in playoff mode. They need to win every game possible if they want to take the National League East crown.
They enter tonight’s matchup with a 1.5-game lead over the Atlanta Braves, and with Oakland being one of the worst teams in baseball, New York should be motivated to make a statement in this opener.
With that being said, let’s go through how to get the most bang for your buck as we back the Mets tonight.
